Chili Relleno Casserole (eggface) is AMAZING!



Recommended Posts

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.

I prepared it as instructed and divided it into 5 portions, here is the nutrition information I came up with via MyFitnessPal per portion:

Calories: 236

Carbs: 21.7g (14g of this is from the black beans)

Fat: 6.4g

Protein: 22.9g

This looks good! :D

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
