How to Make Vegetarian Stuffed Poblanos
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a blender, combine 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes, 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and roughly chopped, ½ medium onion, roughly chopped, and 2 cloves garlic.
- Puree until smooth.
- Season with salt to taste.
- Pour sauce into a 9x13 inch baking dish and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained, ½ cup cornmeal, ½ cup shredded pepper jack cheese (or Monterey Jack/Cojack with minced pepper), ½ medium onion, finely chopped, 1 clove garlic, minced, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and ¾ cup water.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Carefully slice poblano peppers in half lengthwise and remove seeds and membranes. If peppers are flat, slice deeper to create a well for stuffing.
- Evenly divide the bean mixture among the poblano halves, filling generously.
- Place stuffed poblanos on top of the sauce in the baking dish.
- Sprinkle the poblanos with the remaining ½ cup shredded cheese.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove foil and continue baking for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with crushed tortilla chips and a dollop of extra sauce before serving.
