A popular family dish that is also a great way to use leftover rice. I made this with Select New Mexico Mild Green Chiles, which is ideal for heat level and the large dice size.
Ingredients
  • 3 cups cooked rice (cooked your usual way, with or without salt)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup diced mild green chiles (we used Select New Mexico Mild)
  • ½ lb Monterey Jack cheese, cut in strips
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mix the sour cream and chiles.
  3. In a greased 1½ quart baking dish, layer half the rice, then half the sour cream and green chile mixture, then half the Monterey Jack slices.
  4. Repeat the layers.
  5. Bake uncovered until bubbly, about 30 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle with the Cheddar cheese and bake another 10 minutes
