Pretty quick, good and easy
This assumes you have the rice cooked already. Like left over. It has a good fried rice flavor, and makes a decent meal. The pictures i am making a double batch, left overs from a rice bowl recipe the prior night.
Bacon can be optional.

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.
