Chiles Rellenos $5.18

Very exciting, I made one of my favorite meals at a mexican resturaunt, but that I avoid a lot because of the fact that it is fattening and also looked complicated to make. I found a recipe that cut out lots of fat, and looked relatively easy to make. traditional version of Chiles Rellenos are dipped in light egg batter and fried, I cut out the egg and the dipping and baked the peppers, instead of frying. The result was flavorful, yet light. Infact, many recipes call for breadcrumbs, but I cut that out as well.
