2 large poblano chili peppers*

1/2 cup cooked brown rice
1/3 cup mild or medium chunky salsa
1/3 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese or pepper Jack cheese, divided

Recipe



*Poblano peppers can sting and irritate the skin; wear rubber gloves when handling peppers and do not touch eyes. Wash hands after handling peppers.
