Rinse the black beans and cook with the ingredients that follow in the list (except salsa) over medium heat, crushing some of the beans, reducing some of the liquid but leaving a sauce-like consistency some (about 15 min). Stuff peppers with the combination of cheeses; top with crumbled feta cheese and broil in oven, in a baking dish until cheese is bubbly and browned. Serve peppers over black bean sauce and top with salsa. Great as an appetizer or side dish. Make as hot as you can stand it.
