Fried Rice – Nanci’s

Share This Recipe

I like ordering Fried Rice at the Chinese restaurant in town but never thought of making it. Really easy! This is a great recipe for using up the extra cooked meat that you may have at the end of cooking day. For me, it meant picking the bones from daughter Becky’s leftover Applebee’s Rib Dinner that she had for her birthday this past week. I didn’t have any bean sprouts in the cupboard so I left them out. I did add some peanuts. I bagged these up in 1 C. servings to take to work for my lunches.

Serving Directions:
Thaw and reheat in the microwave.

Comments:
Nanci’s Note: I’m not a fan of bean sprouts so I leave them out. I am a fan of peanuts so I add them. I like the crunch I guess. For the meat, I just go to the freezer and pull out the “dibs and dabs” that I have put in there from leftovers or cooking day extras.

I freeze this in 1 C. portions in a small Ziploc container or a quart size Ziploc bag. I heat them up in the microwave at work and then add a soy sauce packet (we accumulate these from somewhere).
