Cous Cous stuffed peppers with River Cobbler

This is a really lovely dish. I've left the recipe a bit vague - It is whatever you want to your taste and haven't been too specific with the calories either. It is a very low calorie dish (Approx 400). The river cobbler fillets (Get Tesco value River Cobbler, £2 for 2 with a gorgeous flavor: ) at 130cal per fillet (100cal per 100g of fish) you are onto a winner! You also have 185calories from the 50g of cous cous. Try not to over do it with the cous cous and keep to the 50g. Add the veg and spices to your taste and serve with a salad and you will keep within your 400cals.

The idea for the stuffed peppers came from a Gary Rhodes book I picked up from Oxfam! It was just the idea though, I made it up as I went along and added the River Cobbler because I really love its flavor!
