The name here says it all. This recipe is truly SO EASY! Featuring leftover brown rice, this quick version of the Chinese classic is a great vegetarian meal, side dish or, base for chopped chicken or shrimp. Ready in just 25 minutes, this recipe is ideal for busy weeknights. Bright red peppers and frozen peas and carrots make an appealing and delicious color combination and adds crunch. Tender scrambled eggs and rice combine to make this a really filing bowl. Let kids choose their favorite vegetable combination for a fun twist on this simple dish.
