We bet you've never had stuffed peppers like this before! A cheesy meat or vegetarian center surrounded by a roasted sweet pepper, all encased in a flaky, yet doughy crust — this is what dinner has been missing all these years.

You'll Need:

For the meat filling:

- 8 oz ground meat
- 2 fl oz olive oil
- salt & pepper
- 2 tbsp corn
- 2 oz cooked rice
- 1 red onion
- 3 oz cheddar
- 1 tsp coriander

For the couscous filling:

- 10 fl oz vegetable broth
- 10 oz couscous
- 1 lemon (zest & juice)
- 5 oz feta cheese
- 1 tomato
- 1 tsp parsley
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 fl oz oil

Extra:

- 2 puff pastry sheets
- 8 long red sweet peppers
- 2 eggs

Here's How:
