Introduction
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.

Great recipe as is. I add ground beef per family request. add to pan of sautéed onion and garlic. When browned add 2 pkts. Sazon, cumin and oregano to taste. Add the beef after the 2nd layer of chilies and before the cream, eggs and salt. Add cheddar. Cook in 8X12 pan or dish. Same time and temp. - 7/24/14

Very tasty - esp IF you're wanting mexican. I didn't have enough of the green chili's, so I added some red & orange peppers that I chopped up to make the difference.
i also added some low sugar taco seasoning - just sprinkled over the top before adding the cheese.
I did have to cook longer - 5/18/12
