Classic Comfort food gets a delicious new twist. Couscous, ground beef, and black beans make a hearty and satisfying filling for colorful bell peppers
Place peppers cut-side up in 9x13-inch baking dish; pour 1/4 cup water into pan. Cover and bake in 375 oven until crisp-tender, about 20 minutes; drain well.
Meanwhile, heat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble ground beef into skillet. Add onion,; cook stirring occasionally until onion wilts, about 2-3 minutes. Drain off any fat. Stir in beans, tomatoes, the 1/2 cup water and seasonings; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; stir in couscous. Cover and let stand 5 minutes.
Fluff couscous mixture with fork; spoon into partially-baked pepper halves. Cover tightly and bake in 375 oven for 25-30 minutes. Top peppers with cheese. Bake uncovered until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
