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)
- 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.
- Add the grated cheddar on top of the peppers and place in the oven for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and starts to brown.
