Healthy Chili Relleno

Rachel Ray drives me nuts and I therefore never watch her show. However, last week I was finishing a workout and her show was on at the gym, and it caught my eye because she was making a healthy chili relleno. Rachel has no idea how to pronounce relleno.
One of the things that appealed to me was the green rice she made as a side dish. It seemed flavorful and really healthy. I am always looking for more ways to eat spinach.
I am lazy so I didn't actually make rellenos. Instead, I turned this into a rice salad. I thought I would make it a little less spicy by using two serrano chiles instead of one jalapeno. I was wrong because this was pretty spicy. I ate this four days in a row and was not sick of it, which is a major statement. I found this to be very tasty and healthy. I added black beans for some protein.
