Preparation
1
Cook cavatappi and prep peppers

  • Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To the boiling water, add cavatappi.
  • Cook uncovered for 8-9 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water. Strain, then return to the pot, off heat.

2
Cook turkey and prep peppers

  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then turkey. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up turkey into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Add peppers and half the corn (use all for 4 servings). Cook for 5-6 min, stirring often, until corn is tender and peppers are tender-crisp.
  • Add half the Tex-Mex paste (use all for 4 servings) and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Cook for 30 sec, until water is absorbed. Season with pepper.

3
Make sauce

  • To the pan with turkey and veggies, add cream cheese, Monterey Jack, half the cheddar and 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) milk. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until all three types of cheese melt and sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove from heat, then stir in 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) reserved pasta water. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add more reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)

4
Finish and serve

  • To the pot with cavatappi, add turkey-cheese sauce, then stir to coat.
  • Divide cheesy cavatappi between bowls, then sprinkle remaining cheddar over top. 
  • Using a pair of kitchen shears or scissors, snip green onions over top.

If you've opted to get turkey, cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook chorizo.**
