The Duke's Favorite Cheese Casserole

This was widely used 30-plus years ago and appeared in the Los Angeles
Times.

1 pound coarsely grated Jack cheese
1 pound coarsely grated cheddar cheese
2 (4-ounce) cans diced green chiles
4 eggs, separated
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 tomatoes, sliced

Preheat oven to 325 F. Combine cheeses and chiles and spoon into a
well-greased 11-by-9-inch or similar-size baking dish.
Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. In another bowl combine egg yolks,
milk, flour, salt and pepper and mix until well blended. Fold beaten egg
whites into yolk mixture. Pour egg mixture over cheese in casserole. Using
a fork, swirl egg mixture through cheese.
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and decorate with sliced tomatoes.
Bake 30 minutes longer or until a knife inserted in the center comes out
clean. Let stand a few minutes to set; serve.

Serves 6-8
