- 1 tsp. Olive Oil

Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Rub the poblano pepper with olive oil and place on a baking sheet.
Step 2
Roast the pepper for 8–10 minutes until slightly softened but still firm enough to hold shape. Remove and let cool slightly.
Step 3
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk (if using), tomato, mushroom, green onion, cilantro, salt, and pepper.
Step 4
Gently open the slit in the poblano and pour the egg mixture inside.
Step 5
Place back in the oven and bake for 15–18 minutes, or until eggs are set and lightly golden.
Step 6
Garnish with extra cilantro or green onion if desired, and enjoy!
