Directions
Drain chili peppers.
Remove seeds and chop peppers coarsely.
In a medium-sized, heat-resistant, non-metallic bowl melt butter in Microwave Oven 30 seconds.
Add onion and heat, uncovered, in Microwave Oven 3 minutes or until tender.
Add chili peppers, tomato sauce and salt to onion.
Heat, uncovered, in Microwave Oven 6 minutes.
In a small bowl beat eggs and half and half together until well blended.
Gradually add egg mixture to heated sauce mixture, very little at a time, stirring constantly.
Layer ½ of corn chips, ½ of tomato mixture and half of the heat-resistant, non-metallic casserole.
Repeat with remaining corn chips, tomato mixture and the remainder of the ½ pound cheese.
Carefully spread the sour cream over the top of the entire casserole.
Heat, uncovered, in Microwave Oven 5 minutes or until mixture begins to set.
Sprinkle the ½ cup of Cheddar cheese over the sour cream.
Arrange tomatoes in a ring around the outside edge of the casserole.
Heat, uncovered, in Microwave Oven 6 minutes or until cheese melts and tomatoes are cooked.
