Who said leftovers have to be boring? This vegetable fried rice is the perfect weeknight dinner if you find yourself in a leftovers rut. The blend of rice sauteed with carrots, onions, peppers, peas and garlic makes for an easy vegetarian dinner that the whole family will enjoy.
This dish is packed with flavor and takes less than an hour to make. The affordable ingredients can be dressed up any way you like — fry up an egg or add some grilled chicken if vegetarian dinners aren’t your style.
To make the dish, add onions and carrots to a large skillet and cook for five minutes. After adding your bell peppers and garlic, combine the cooked veggies with rice and toss well. Add frozen peas to the pan. Stir in the soy sauce and mix gently until everything is thoroughly combined and warmed through.
