Chile Relleno Casserole

Chile Relleno Casserole layers whole green chiles stuffed with cubes of jack cheese, covered with a baked egg batter, and topped with shredded cheddar cheese. The egg and milk mixture sets into a firm yet tender custard, binding the chiles and cheese. Baked to a golden brown, the casserole offers creamy, cheesy textures alongside the mild heat from the green chiles.
