Chili Verde Stuffed Poblanos

June 23, 2015 · by gennavee ·

This dish is so filling that we really didn’t need a side with it. There is a little heat in the chili verde because of the serrano pepper, but you can eliminate that if you want to take the heat level down. Overall, you are gonna love the combination of flavors in this southwestern dish.
