This is an easy recipe that I've made for many years. Assemble it ahead and refrigerate for several hours (or even overnight), then pop into oven to bake.
Lots of HERBS and SPICES in here ** Great served with salsa over the top too. INEXPENSIVE DINNER **

CHILI RELLENO CASSEROLE
4 slices white bread, crusts cut off
2 cups grated cheese (I like Mexican blend, but whatever is fine)
4 oz. diced green chilies (canned)
6 eggs
2 cups milk
1/2 tsp EACH oregano AND dry mustard, AND chili powder
1/4 tsp EACH cumin AND garlic powder AND pepper
1 tsp EACH salt AND paprika
***
Butter one side of each slice of bread and arrange, buttered side down, in 7x11” pan (may need to cut bread to fit). Sprinkle evenly with cheese. Spread chilies over cheese. Beat eggs with milk and spices until well blended. Pour over cheese. Cover and chill at least 4 hours (or overnight).
Bake uncovered in 325 oven for about 50 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let stand about 10 minutes before serving. Cut in squares. Serves 2-3 (can be doubled and put in 9x13” pan)
You can serve with salsa, if you want. This recipe is very “forgiving”; you can adjust the spices as you want. You could also add 4 oz. of chopped/sliced black olives to the egg mixture if you want. …
I like this with a green salad and/or citrus fruit salad.
