Next, add mushrooms to the mix. Cook together for about 8 minutes. Finally add the beans, cilantro and a bit of salt. Give the mix a few tosses.

Take the green peppers, wash, dry and remove the stems. Scoop out the seeds and fibre. Rub the outside of the peppers with olive oil. Pack in the prepared vegetables.

Bake on 400°C until the outside of the peppers look done. Finally spread the goat cheese. If you do not like goat cheese, you may use cheddar or mozzarella.

Bake until the cheese melts and turns golden brown. Serve warm.
