Pick a pepper, fill a pepper, roast a pepper, eat a pepper… sounds like a nursery rhyme or a slogan. It's our slogan for this meal here, and while the peppers have already been picked, we tell you how to fill your peppers with sweet corn and healthy turkey. We have you top them with melty cheese and roast them perfectly. But eating them? That's all on you. (We're pretty sure you're up to the task!)
