  1. Preheat your oven to 200┬░C (180┬░C fan).
  2. Cut the red bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes.
  3. Place the halved peppers cut side up on a baking tray and drizzle with 1/2 tbsp of olive oil. Lightly season with salt and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
  4. While the peppers are baking, finely chop the red onion and garlic.
  5. Heat the remaining olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  7. Add the cherry tomatoes, dried oregano, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper to the pan. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.

  9. Carefully remove the peppers from the oven and fill each half with the vegetable and cheese mixture.
  10. Return stuffed peppers to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through.
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean stuffed pepper!
