Stuffed Poblano Peppers
"When your schedule’s overstuffed, and making a meal from scratch starts to feel insurmountable, we have the ideal, heat-and-eat entrée to put some pep back in your step: Trader Joe’s Stuffed Poblano Peppers. Each package contains two savory, mildly spicy Poblano Pepper halves, which our supplier has Stuffed with a zesty, flavorful mix of soft brown rice, fresh and tender corn kernels, and hearty white chicken meat. They finish this melange with a creamy, herby cilantro sauce, and top each Pepper with a layer of melty Monterey jack cheese. The result is similar to an open-faced, unbattered version of a classic chile relleno, with a marvelous medley of flavors, textures, and aromatics in every bite. Since it only takes a few minutes in the microwave (or a touch longer in the conventional oven) before they’re steamy and ready to enjoy, these Stuffed Poblano Peppers are especially suited to situations when you need something quick and satisfying. They’re just the right size to enjoy on their own as an easy work lunch, and they make a spectacular center of the plate option for an effortless weeknight dinner. And to make more of a complete meal, they accessorize excellently with a side salad, some Spicy Spuds or quickly sautéed Organic Black Beans sprinkled with crumbled Cotija cheese."
