Beef-And-Barley-Stuffed Bell Peppers

"I found this recipe on the Yahoo Health website. Originally from Better Homes and Gardens, with slight changes in ingredients and methods. "Stoplight" peppers (a package of 1 each red, green and yellow pepper) make a pretty presentation. You can use pre-shredded 3-cheese blend (Monterey Jack, cheddar and Mozarella) instead of the Monterey Jack."
