Healthy Fried Rice
(January/February 2006 Nick Jr. Magazine)

3 tablespons olive oil or canola oil, divided
1 pound package frozen vegetables for stir-fry
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups cold leftover brown rice (Chinese takeout is perfect) (I used Success brown rice as I had it)
1/3 cup stir-fry sauce or tamari (used Kikkoman Stir Fry Sauce)

1. In a non stick frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add frozen vegetables, stiring occassionally, for 5 minutes, until crisp-tender. Transfer vegetables to a bowl. Add another tablespoon oil to pan and scramble eggs. Once cooked, add to vegetable bowl.
2. Add final tablespoon of oil to pan over high heat. Add brown rice. Heat 2 minutes. Add vegetables, eggs, and stir-fry sauce along with 3 tablespoons water. Stir-fry 1 minute until hot. Serve.

Note: To make the side-to-main dish switch, add 1 to 2 cups diced, cooked, pork, chicken or shrimp.


I doubled the recipe - I was able to make it quickly, hope it came out ok.
