Preparation

• Heat the coconut oil in a medium size skillet or frying pan. Add the garlic and corn, sauteing until soft. Add the cilantro, basil, cumin, paprika and salt and pepper and cook for a few more minutes. Place the mixture into a medium size mixing bowl, add the beans and mix evenly.
• Cut the tops off the bell peppers and scoop out the seeds and any inner flesh. Place filling inside each pepper and cover with cheese if desired. Place the cut top on the base of the pepper and place in an oven preheated to 350 degrees F. Bake for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the peppers are tender. Serve with a side salad and some chips and fresh salsa.
