Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
  2. Combine the beans, water, cumin, salt and pepper in a pot over medium high heat. Lightly boil for 5 to 10 minutes until the liquid reduces and the mixture can be mashed into a paste (using a potato masher or back of a fork).
  3. Meanwhile, slice the peppers in half, remove the seeds and ribs, and place cut side up on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. 
  4. Fill each pepper with a spoonful of the bean mixture, top with cheese, and bake until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Top with sour cream and cilantro and serve.
