Relleno Recipes

Using "Missions Low-Carb or La Tortilla Factory" Corn or White tortillas & Carb Hood Dairy-makes it low-carb without lossing flavor. Also, freezes & re-heats well.

Everyone gets his own portion with this fun, vegetarian, Tex-Mex mini casserole. A normal-size casserole like this would take close to an hour to bake—these are ready in half the time. Heatproof ramekins are a cook’s best friend—we use them all the time to hold ingredients while cooking. You can buy them at most grocery stores. Make it a meal: Enjoy with steamed corn tortillas and salsa on the side.

I love the flavors of a Chile Relleno at a Mexican restaurant. Gooey cheese, crispy crust, flavorful peppers - Yum! With this recipe, I decided to reverse the process for a more healthful but still delicious combination.

I modified the following recipe to add some protein, using what I already had on hand. Chicken or taco meat or any other meat would be good, too.

This is my (even lower calorie) version of the delicious Stuffed Pepper Casserole recipe from the Skinny Mom blog. I also put a more Mexican spin on it, because I am addicted to Chili Relleno, but don't need all the extra calories it contains.

This was very good and much easier than stuffing the cheese into the chiles, but with pretty much the same flavor of the traditional method. If you don't care for hot food, you could use plain Monterey jack cheese instead of the pepper-jack. For myself I added more pepper.
