Recipe Introduction
It was published in the "Guys and Galleys" column in the LA Times magazine sometime back in the early
1970s. We'll serve it with Spanish
Rice-a-Roni to which we've added a bag of
small cooked shrimp, refried beans, and a big
fruit salad.
The Chile Relleno Sauce *really* makes this
dish!!!!
