Deseed and devein the peppers, and put them in the oven/microwave until slightly soft (5 mins on high in the oven worked for me)
  3. Stir couscous with a fork and mix in the feta, sundried tomatoes and olives. Spread the pesto evenly on the inside of the peppers before spooning in the stuffing and packing it down.

  5. Add salad to garnish such as spinach leaves, and enjoy!!! :)

Greeks don't use cannellini beans or couscous in Stuffed Peppers. We use ground lamb or other meat sauteed with onions, then add. Drain in colander, and place in a large baking dish. When sauce is finished, mix in the couscous and pine nuts. Spoon mixture evenly into pepper halves.
