    Tips

    • This a great way to use left over rice from dinner the night before. 
    • Freeze left over rice in plastic bags, so you can have cooked rice on hand for when you need a quick dinner. It easily defrosts by running hot water through it. 
    • Choose a variety of seasonal vegetables to create your own unique fried rice dish.
