I made this tonight & it was really good! I used 2 (4 oz.) cans of chilis though and I would recommend you do the same. I also did not use any cheddar cheese and did not feel it was lacking at all, that 8 oz. of jack cheese was plenty!
This was easy & delicious!!
PUFFY CHILI RELLENOS CASSEROLE
8 oz. Jack cheese, cut in 12 strips
2 cans (2 oz. each) whole peeled chiles
8 eggs
2/3 c. milk
1 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 c. Cheddar cheese
Salsa
Put cheese strips in chiles and arrange on a greased 8x13 pan.Beat eggs, milk, flour and baking powder until smooth. Pour evenly over chiles. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese.
Bake uncovered at 350°F for 45 minutes.

i'll have to try this with the whole canned chiles. I make chile rellenos only on rare occasions since it's a lot of work to roast & peel the chiles. Thanks!
I wonder if this could be adapted to use the chopped green chilies? I have never tried to stuff chilies so I am wondering if it is difficult? I was thinking the chopped chilies with small cubes of cheese and then the recipe as it is?

layer some thin slices of ham, green chilies (either whole or chopped.....using both would be good), and thin slices of cheese in a baking dish. Bake in a hot oven for about 5 minutes....until it gets hot, you really aren't trying to cook it. Using the egg batter AT ROOM TEMPERATURE pour it over the dish and bake until it puffs up and turns golden brown.

I got to try this. I'm stuffed but still am craving it now.

Yum.
I make this a lot.
My version's just a little different - I used cooked crumbled sausage and I mix (liberally!) red pepper flakes into the eggs.
Yum.
