Skillet Stuffed Peppers

I found this recipe on Cooking light and thought it would be a good one to try. It wasn't too bad. I think i needed to season the meat more, I used some Mr's Dash Seasoning to keep the salt down on the recipe more and i dont think i used it enough. maybe i can talk Brad into letting me make it again.
