For the filling: toast the pine nuts without fat in a frying pan. Remove from the pan. Half fry the bread in butter and remove from the pan. Sauté the red pepper, onions and garlic in the same pan. Deglaze with the stock, cover and allow to steam for 5 mins. Add the bread and allow to cool. Mix in the pine nuts, herbs and Sbrinz and season.
