8.111 Poblano Pepper Stuffed with Eggs, Shrimp and Bacon

Poblano peppers are not something I have used a lot of in the past but I love the flavor of peppers and wanted to experiment with them especially with Cinco de Mayo coming up on May 5.  Wikipedia says  “The poblano is a mild chili pepper originating in the state of Puebla, Mexico.  Dried, it is called a chile ancho.  The ripened red poblano is significantly hotter and more flavorful than the less ripe, green poblano.“  I found the poblano to not be hot at all.  So we ended up adding some sriracha to the final dish.  But if you like your eggs mild then these will probably be just right for you.
