Zesty Spanish Rice Low Fat


This is a twist on the regular spanish rice. I stumbled upon this by accident when i opened a can of herdez salsa verde mexicana picante" instead of green chillies. I decided to throw it in and see how it turned out. The rice turned out great. I love the flavor and it's low fat!!"!
