I got this from the Grilling 2010 edition of the Penzeys Catalog. This was really good. It wasn't spicy but it is a great use for green chiles.

Chili Relleno Breakfast Bake

1/4 cup butter (unsalted)
2-7 oz 
cans diced green chiles, drained*
1/2 lb chorizo sausage, browned and drained (optional)
1-8 oz pkg shredded cheddar cheese**
1-8 oz pkg shredded monterey jack cheese**
4 eggs
2 cups milk
1 cup Bisquick mix***
1 tsp chili powder, or Penzeys Southwest Seasoning
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Preheat 
oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a 9x13 baking pan. Layer 
the chiles over the butter. Sprinkle with the browned chorizo, if 
using. Layer the shredded cheeses over the sausage. In a separate 
bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, Bisquick, chili powder and pepper. Pour over the other ingredients in the pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 
30-40 minutes or until golden brown.

Risa's notes:
* I only used one can. I 
didn't read the recipe right.
** I used blocks of cheese that I 
shredded myself. One was 50% reduced fat cheddar and the other was monterey jack cheese.
*** I used the lower fat version of Bisquick.
