Poblano Chili Turkey Casserole, Another ground turkey recipe This is a great make ahead recipe, if you have the extra time to roast the peppers, and assemble later Wonderful tex-mex flavors and south beach friendly at all phases , YUM! This was so good and healthy–I made it for PAC Spring 2009, and I will definitely be making it again and again I wasn’t sure if 10 poblanos was a mistake (seemed a bit much, and the cashier asked me what I could be possibly doing with it!), but it made all the sense in the world once I assembled the dish Rave reviews from picky eaters as well! Thanks keelyshaw! Update: To steam the peppers, I throw them in a bowl with a small amount of water, cover with seran wrap, and then microwave This cuts down the prep time, and makes them easy to peel , Intersting taste, but NOT a good choice for kids I made this for my dad when he came to visit, and we both loved it But my kids and wife didn’t care for it at all Way too spicy for my 3 and 5 year olds I had to give them peanut-butter and jelly instead And prep time is a lot more than 30 minutes, considering you have to roast, steam, allow to cool, and then peal the pablonos
