Notes: Beth says: "Living in New Mexico I learned to really appreciate the taste of green chili. In the fall there are roadside stands where they roast the chilies in front of you. I LOVE the smell of roasting chilies! Canned green chilies from the grocery store still have the skin on and they don't have nearly the flavor of fresh or frozen ones. You can also get Anaheim chiles in the produce section of some grocery stores and roast them in the oven yourself. Just make sure to stand as far away from the oven door when you open it. Otherwise the fumes will burn your eyes."
