Cut peppers in half through the stalk and remove seeds.  Place on a baking sheet.

Meanwhile make up the couscous as per pack instructions.  Allow tocool a little and add the pine nuts and two thirds of the cheese. Mix gently.

Spoon into the pepper cups, top with the remaining cheese and return to oven for 10 mins until cheese has browned.
