Ham Fried Rice



Nothing is better than using up leftovers for Ham Fried Rice! The nice thing? You don't even need to make it with HAM!

Generally speaking, I make extra rice in my rice cooker every time it's required for a meal. So, ham fried rice has become a "staple" to some of our diets. (Taylor especially loves it and is so excited that he gets some for his lunch tomorrow.)

Ham Fried Rice: (You can easily HALF this recipe... I like to make a lot and freeze it for lunches later in the month)

Melt 6 Tbsp butter and to it add:
4 Tbsp soy sauce
4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 small diced onion

Cook over medium heat until the onions soften. Then add:

1 cup frozen or fresh veggies you have on hand! (I generally just use frozen petite peas, but have added corn, carrots.... anything!)
leftover meat (Ham is used most of the time, but leftover chicken pieces work great too!)
6 cups cooked rice

Stir well, then add:

3 eggs.

Cook on medium high until the eggs are "scrambled".



YUM!
