Tips
- When fire roasting peppers without a fire, keep moving them around on the circular grill to get them charred.
- Sealing the charred peppers in a baggy will help them steam and make the peeling process easier.
- Thoroughly mix the cheese and egg mixture by hand to break up yolks and incorporate everything well.
- Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before cutting.
