Vegetable Fried Rice is a great meal to use up some leftover meat or vegetables, using what you have on hand. Here is my go to recipe for that and if I have the Sun-Bird Fried Rice seasoning mix, I like to use it too as it makes fried rice taste so authentic. The reviews on Amazon are really good too.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 teaspoons ginger, minced
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped bell peppers

I've ever seen a fried rice flavor packet-I'll be ont he loo out as we eat a lot of fried rice as it is a go to for my daughter who isn't picky, but she has gotten in a rut lately. I spurged/dared myself to buy a few bottled sauce mixes, a Gen Tsao sauce, and a Tika Masala souce for days I need to get something quick. I hope I like them.
ReplyDeleteOh, those sound neat, Sam. My daughter likes the Gen Tsao sauce. I've ordered some oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, toasted sesame oil, hoping to change things up a bit. I hope you can find the fried rice packet as it's really good.
DeleteI love, love love fried rice. Now stop with the recipes....:)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and you are kindred spirits, Kim. She loves fried rice too. Tomorrow I'll put up a Frugal Friday post.:)
