Well at least it was an adventure for me! We made Chile Rellenos tonight (
la-jan, you would be proud! We got the idea from your blog). They didn't look beautiful, but they tasted great.
Here's the thing though. I am a TOTAL wimp when it comes to hot/spicy food. We used Anaheim peppers, which I was told (by
wikipedia) were pretty unspicy. Well, that may be true for other people, but my mouth was burning! It wasn't tooo bad that I couldn't eat it (I finished dinner because it was delicious), but Chris even ran to the kitchen to get a glass of milk. He didn't think they were quite as hot as I did.. Next time we make these I'm definitely trying a different (hopefully less hot!) kind of chili pepper.

Terry usually has trouble with that same thing. He makes several more than we can eat just in case. Of course, he can eat almost anything, so, I take a bite and move on to the next one if it is too hot, then he will eat it.
Good luck! They look great, I can't wait to show Terry!
wow, i'm really impressed that you made chile rellenos! i'm always sad that i can't take spicy food...don't feel bad!
I am amazed that you made them. They do look good!
