I received some emails from a few about John Wayne. Always a favorite in
our family. My Jerry was named after him! Actually his mother wanted to name him
John Wayne Maxwell, but his father put his foot down, so he was named Jerry
Wayne Maxwell!! Anyway, John Wayne loved a cheese casserole.... and this was
his favorite:
John Wayne's Cheese Casserole

1 pound Monterey Jack cheese, grated
1 pound Cheddar cheese, grated
4 egg whites
4 egg yolks
2/3 cup canned evaporated milk, undiluted
1 T. flour
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. pepper
3 medium tomatoes, sliced
1. Preheat oven to 375º. Remove seeds from chilies and dice.
2. In large bowl, combine cheeses and chilies. Turn into well-buttered
shallow 9x12, 2 quart casserole.
3. In a large bowl with electric mixer combine egg whites, beating until
stiff peaks form.
4. In small bowl combine egg yolks, milk, flour, salt, and pepper until
well blended.
5. Using a rubber scraper, fold egg whites into yolk mixture. Pour
egg mixture over cheese. Using a fork "ooze" it through the cheese.

overlapping around edge. Bake another 30 minutes, or until knife inserted in
