Excellent! I make a version of this without baking powder and it still puffs up great. Pepper jack cheese works wonderfully if you are in a pinch and have run out of diced green chilies.

This is the same recipe that my grandmother used to make! My family makes this all the time - you can even make it a day ahead and reheat. Wonderful for a brunch menu.
