Place them in the oven at 325 degrees and pre-bake them for 30 mins the water will internally boil them and keep the shell from burning. Next up, Heat oil in a large saucepan over low heat. Saute onion, celery and chopped green pepper for 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and saute for 2 minutes. Season with parsley, cajun seasoning, file powder, and salt. Increase heat to medium high, and add ground beef. Cook until beef is evenly browned. Add shrimp, and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in stuffing mix. Stuff each bell pepper half, lightly sprinkle with breadcrumbs and top with cheese. Place stuffed bell pepper halves in ungreased baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30mins.
