Directions
- Step 1 Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Remove the seeds and any white pith from the peppers and arrange, cut-side up, in a roasting tin. Drizzle with oil and season, then bake for 20 mins.
- Step 2 Combine the rice and beans. Remove the peppers from the oven and fill with the rice mixture. Top each with a slice of cheese and bake for 10-15 mins more, until the rice has melted and the filling is hot. Top with spoonfuls of guacamole.
