Chili Relleno & Ground Turkey Casserole

Another dish inspired from Farmers' Market!  This dish had locally grown peppers (sorry there were a couple different kinds and I can't remember their names) that had such awesome flavor. This is a super easy dish for a weeknight when you really don't feel like laboring over a stove with numerous pots and pans.

5-6 peppers w/ thin skins
1 lb turkey
1 lb cheese (I used 1/2 pepper jack and 1/2 Mexican blend)
1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 cups milk
3 eggs
chili powder
garlic powder
salt and pepper

Directions:
  • Microwave peppers (or you can charbroil the and peel them) 
  • Cook ground turkey in a pan and season with seasonings
  • Mix the flour, milk and eggs together
  • Spray a 9x13 baking pan and then layer the cooked chilies
  • Follow by all the turkey meat 
  • Layer all the cheese
  • Then add the mix that you made in step 2
  • I had a small can of chilies that I added on the top, but this is optional
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes until it is firm to the touch and the top and edges have slightly browned
  • Serve with some tortillas!
