Delicious stuffed bread with a Tex-Mex flavor. Soft and fluffy, the bread has a touch of sweetness. Poblano peppers add a nice flavor that makes this braided bread different than other recipes. They make this very flavorful, but not overly spicy. The cheese and sour cream not only add flavor but provide a little creaminess to the filling. A nice, light dinner alongside a salad. Or, cut into slices and place on a platter for game day or a party. It will be the first thing to disappear. This does take some time to prepare, but once all the elements are prepared it comes together quickly.
