A side of rice & beans, either refried (mashed) or black and you've got a nice feed.

I welcome the help Roger.....but...........BELL peppers?!?!(must be a Kansas thing)
Poblano or Anaheim...........not bell (yuck!)

jb, glad the BB met with your approval. I suspect you feel "..you're still a hard bastard.." is a compliment..........I agree.

My sincere apologies. I said "Bell" solely based on the appearance, not from any recipe, nor from any experience. I was simply trying to recommend something that jb might find to his liking, since he's such a picky culinary connoisseur. I mean, unwrapping a burrito and bypassing the flour tortilla as "pastry"? I'll leave the recommendations to the rest of you guys.

Johnboy, if you do decide to try out "Chilis Rellenos", be aware that they can be a "crap shoot"; Anaheim and Poblano chilis are generally pretty mild in nature, sometimes as mild as a Bell pepper, but with a different taste, more flavorful in my estimation. However, once in a while, you will get one that might cause your ears to smoke and your eyes to steam, and most times, you'll get something somewhere in between the ho-hum, and the whooeee. Doesn't matter to me as I like 'em any way, but some folks do not have the tolerance for heat that others of us do. Just a note of caution to the uninitiated.

Thanks for the warning Rrumber...taken on board.
