Chili Rellenos, the classic Mexican dish of cheese-stuffed fried poblano peppers, gets the sandwich treatment today. Ooey-goey, cheesy and loaded with flavor, for such simple sandwiches they’re are supremely good.

I love this folk rock tune from Milwaukee-based band Twin Brother. What a great voice.

Check out Twin Brother on the band’s Website, where you can learn of upcoming shows in Wisconsin and buy their music.

Cheers!
