when i say i sprinted to trader joes once i heard their hatch green chiles were back... i’ve been waiting for them to come back in season this whole summer and have been DYING to try out this recipe idea. i love these peppers because they are the perfect balance between spicy and sweet. this is a vegetarian option, but you can easily add meat for a more protein packed meal.
