Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 4-ounce cans diced green chilies (canned, drained)
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until smooth and well blended.
Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to the eggs, then whisk until the mixture is free of lumps.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and the diced green chilies. Mix until everything is evenly combined.
Pour in the melted butter and gently fold it into the mixture until fully incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
Slice into squares or rectangles and serve warm. Enjoy your Green Chili Cheese Squares!
