Shrimp Fried Rice
A quick and delicious way to use up leftover rice!

Serves 4

about 2 cups of cooked rice, preferably from the night before
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tbsp. oil (I use canola at home)
1 handful snow peas, thinly sliced on a diagonal
1 green onion, minced
1/2 red bell pepper, small diced
2 cups raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 tsp. sesame oil
1 tbsp. fish sauce (or to taste)

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the eggs and lightly scramble until almost done. Scoop eggs out and place in a small bowl on the side.

2. Adjust the heat to high, and add the scallions, snow peas, bell pepper, and shrimp to the pan. Saute briefly until shrimp are pink and curled.

3. Add rice, scrambled eggs, sesame oil and fish sauce to the pan and toss together. Serve.
