This very popular Mexican pepper is a gorgeous dark green and has a mild flavor. This, combined with their large, heart-sized shape and thick, sturdy walls make them ideal for stuffing--in fact, they are the pepper of choice for traditional chiles rellenos, a traditional stuffed pepper dish originating from the same region as these peppers. Try cheesy, fried chiles rellenos; stuff with meat, rice, and diced veggies then bake with sauce; or cut in half and crack an egg in each side and bake for a fun new brunch dish. IPM
