Fried Rice

This is great for holiday leftovers or anytime.

I've used a can of mixed vegetables but you can also use frozen vegetables instead.

You can adjust amount of ham and vegetables as needed.

1 - 2 c. each: chopped cooked ham, mixed vegetables
1/4 c. chopped green onions
2 - 3 T. canola or safflower oil
1 bag of boil in bag
1/4 tsp. each salt, pepper
2 - 3 c. water

Remove ham from refrigerator and chop.

Open can of mixed vegetables and drain.

Rinse green onions and chop, set aside.

Place bag of rice in a microwave safe bowl, add water.

Microwave for 5 - 6 minutes or according to package instructions.

Preheat skillet over medium-high heat. 

Lower heat to medium, add oil.

Combine vegetables, salt, pepper and ham and cook for 7 - 10 minutes.

Remove rice from microwave and drain. 

Cut bag and pour rice into skillet. 

Cook the fried rice for another few minutes or until done.

Remove fried rice from heat and sprinkle green onions over fried rice before serving.

Serves 4.
