Get package names and versions from package _facts

Post Body

I have this user who wants me to build him a report file using ansible package_facts to determine what rpm's are on his 5 hosts. I want to use package_facts instead of rpm -qa to show him the ansible native way. However, I cant seem to make a list of lists that looks like the following:
- name: "{{ item.name }}" Version: "{{ item.version }}"

- name: "{{ item.name }}" Version: "{{ item.version }}"

- etc

-etc

loop: ansible_facts.packages

Can anyone direct me to a blog post or suggest an answer on how to write this out?
