Hyvee Culinary Expert Tip
Chile peppers contain volatile oils that can burn your skin and eyes. When working with hot peppers, wear protective gloves.Place 1/3 cup of turkey filling in the center of each lettuce leaf and top with green peppers, tomatoes, and cheese. Just before serving, sprinkle with fresh lime juice. If desired, serve with salsa.
