Stretching the category a bit into general cucurbits - does Achocha count?  Hope so  :happy7:

'Fat baby' Achochas harvested two days ago.  The vines have been hit by frost and the top leaves are gone and black, but underneath the fruits were still thriving.

Definitely not - peppers are solanums and achochas are cucurbita - ie squash relatives.
