Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked white rice (cold, day-old rice works best)
  • 2 tbsp sesame or vegetable oil
  • 1 cup frozen peas-and-carrots blend, thawed
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  1. 1
    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the peas and carrots 2 minutes.
  2. 2
    Push the veggies to one side, pour the beaten eggs into the empty side, and scramble until just cooked.
  3. 3
    Add the remaining oil and turn the heat to high. Add the cold rice and toss thoroughly with the eggs and veggies.
  4. 4
    Drizzle in the soy sauce and stir-fry 3–4 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted. Top with green onions.
