2 large eggs
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

3 Sprinkle with 1/2 of the Jack and Cheddar cheeses, then cover with remaining poblano peppers.
