Super Easy Fried Rice

Source: Adapted from Weight Watchers
Serves: 2

Ingredients:
1 large egg
1/2 cup carrots, shredded
1/2 cup scallions, sliced and divided
1 1/2 cups cooked white rice
1/4 cup frozen green peas, thawed
1/8 cup low-sodium soy sauce

1. In a heated pan coated with cooking spray, scramble egg. Once cooked, set aside.
2. Using same skillet, coat again with cooking spray and cook carrots and all but 2 Tbls scallions; saute until carrots are crisp-tender, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Stir in cooked rice, peas and soy sauce; cook until heated through, stirring once or twice for about 1 minute. Gently stir in cooked egg and remaining scallions; heat through.

*This was a super fast meal to prepare. While rice is cooking, steps one and two can be completed. No need to wait on the rice to cook and then start the other steps. I didn't have scallions so I just used a regular onion, but if you're making a trip to the store.....I would suggest the scallions. Feel free to bulk up with a few slices of sliced canadian bacon or even some shrimp! Enjoy
