1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2

Brown the beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Halfway through browning, add the mushrooms and the onion. Continue cooking until the meat is fully browned; drain the fat from the skillet. Stir in enough gravy to hold the mixture together without making it soupy. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
3

Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Place the peppers in the water, and boil for 2 to 3 minutes, until just tender; remove them from the water. Arrange the peppers, hollow side up, in a 9x13 inch baking dish, and fill each with the beef mixture.
4

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until bubbling. Top with cheese, and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Serve in a small pool of gravy.
