Ok, this recipe is so good I am compelled to share.

I was doing my normal once-a-month cooking frenzy where I prepare and freeze a months worth of lunches and one of the recipes I chose this time was the Chili Relleno Casserole from the World According to Eggface site. Instead of using leftover turkey, I use some leftover chicken breasts I had grilled and frozen awhile ago and needed to use up.

This looks good!

ETA: I just read the ingredient list. I would probably put in twice the cumin. And more black pepper. But I am fanatical that way.

Seriously, you guys need to try it - it was one of those meals where I was sitting at the table alone talking to myself with every bite saying "holy crap, this is amazing!!"

Just wanted to follow up - I made this yesterday for my dinners this week! Delicious!

and I made her turkey squash casserole for my lunches - managed to use up the leftover turkey hanging out in my freezer with completely different flavor profiles. Highly recommend both!

I wonder what the calorie and Protein count is per serving. And what a serving size is.
