In a large skillet, sauté beef and onions for 5 minutes, or until beef is browned. Drain off excess fat, and season with basil and Italian seasoning. Stir in the tomatoes, rice, 1/2 cup water and Worcestershire sauce. Cover, and simmer for 15 minute. Remove from heat, and stir in the cheese.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Stuff each pepper with the beef and rice mixture, and place peppers open side up in a baking dish. In a medium bowl, combine tomato soup with just enough water to make the soup a gravy consistency. Pour over the peppers.
