Cut a red bell pepper into half-inch strips and place on the baking sheet.

Cut a jalapeno pepper in half, remove the seeds, and place on the baking sheet.

Cut a yellow onion into chunks and place on another tray.

Slice tomatoes into quarters and place on the tray with the onion.

Drizzle olive oil over all the vegetables and massage it in to coat them evenly.

Broil the vegetables in the oven on the highest rack for 7 to 15 minutes, keeping the door ajar to monitor them.

After 5 minutes, check the vegetables, tossing them if necessary, and remove any that are done.

Place the roasted chilies on a paper towel-covered plate to absorb excess moisture.

Cover the roasted poblano with plastic wrap to steam for 10 minutes, then peel off the skin.

Place all roasted vegetables into a blender and add about 1 cup of chicken broth.

Blend until smooth and pour the sauce into a saucepan.

Add 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, garlic powder, and salt to the sauce and stir.

Add arrowroot to thicken the sauce and simmer on the stove until ready to use.

Separate 3 chilled eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another.

Whip the egg whites until fluffy and then fold in the yolks gently.

Stuff the canned green chilies with medium cheddar cheese.

Dip the stuffed chilies in the egg batter and place them on a baking sheet.

Bake the chilies in the oven until golden brown and cooked through, about 15-20 minutes.
