When sending this for lunch, wrap the bread bowl separately. Warm the chili in the morning before packing in a vacuum bottle. Then all your child has to do is scoop it into the hearty bowl and sprinkle with the cheese that you've packed separately.

Preparation

In saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat; cook red and green peppers, carrots, celery, onion and garlic, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add turkey; cook until no longer pink, 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, corn, chili powder, salt, cumin, oregano and pepper; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Stir in beans; cook, uncovered, for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.

Cut out wedge along top of each roll; pull out some of the inside to hollow out "bowl" with side at least 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. Spoon in chili and sprinkle with cheese.
