- 27 ounces, weight Canned Whole Green Chilies, Drained
- 8 ounces, weight Chunk Of Monterey Jack Cheese
- 15 ounces, weight Canned Hominy, Drained
- 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 3 Eggs
- 1/4 cups Flour
- 3/4 cups Milk

- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Spread the chilies on paper towels to drain.
- Take extra paper towels and blot the top of the peppers.
- Count your chilies, and then cut the Monterey jack cheese into hunks cutting the short way of the cheese brick, so that you have an even number of each.
- In most cases, the chilies have been pre-sliced but if not, cut down one side of each chile (cut lengthwise and dont cut the other sideyou just want to be able to open it up).
- Or you can just slip the cheese into the un-cut chile.
- Dont worry about the seeds unless you are using the hot chilies and you dont want to set fire to your mouth.
- If thats the case, remove the seeds.
- Slip a strip of Monterey jack cheese into each chile (fold them closed if you cut them) and lay them side-by-side in a greased 9x13 baking dish.
- Sprinkle the drained hominy over the chilies.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the hominy.
- In a medium size bowl, beat the eggs, then add the flour.
- Beat together until smooth.
- Add the milk, salt, pepper, and hot sauce.
- Beat thoroughly and pour the egg mixture over the chilies.
- Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted into casserole comes out clean.
- Serve garnished with the parsley with a dollop of sour cream, salsa, and tortilla chips on the side!
