Poblano Rice Casserole Recipe for Lent or Meatless Monday

I love chiles rellenos or stuffed poblano peppers, this Poblano Rice Casserole recipe is inspired on that flavor profile but using the leftover rice and grilled poblano chiles. This recipe is another one from the past yet so worthy to bring back for my family to enjoy and for you to get inspired to cook Mexican home cooking dishes like this delicious Poblano Rice Casserole. This is recipe number four for the series “Favorite Recipes for Lent“.

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 cups of cooked white rice (preferably leftovers from previous day)
  • 4 poblano peppers grilled, peeled and without seeds
  • 2 cups of crumbled queso fresco
  • 1 1/2 cups of frozen corn kernels
  • 1 cup of fresh cream or Crema mexicana
  • 1 cup of shredded Manchego cheese or  Monterrey Jack
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon of butter

Preparation time: 3o minutes. Serves 4 portions. You will need a deep baking dish the kind that is used for casseroles. You will also need aluminum foil.

Serve immediately and enjoy with a fresh glass of jamaica agua fresca or strawberry lemonade. This Poblano Rice Casserole is creamy and with very mild flavor.  The poblanos aren’t hot and by roasting them you are able to peel easily and also the peppers develop a smoky flavor and a meaty texture.

This Poblano Rice Casserole recipe is quintessential home cooking from my family kitchen to yours #LentenRecipes #ABRecipes
