Default Using up egg whites

Michael asked:

Hey Bob! What cheese do you use with your chiles rellenos? I bought some
chihuahua cheese at a farmer's market. I intend to make chiles rellenos
in the very near future and I've never made them before.


I generally just use whatever I have on hand. I've used Oaxaca cheese, a
mixture of enchilada cheese and cream cheese, and a mixture of Cheddar
cheese and cream cheese, all to good effect. I would expect chihuahua cheese
to be very good in chiles rellenos.

Of course, chiles rellenos don't *have* to be stuffed with cheese. If I'm
making them as a main dish I'll stuff them with something like chicken
picadillo or beef picadillo. In that case, the chiles are just a kind of
stuffing-holder, and there's plenty of scope for creativity with the
stuffing.
