While this dish is worthy of a place on my weekly meal plan, I generally prepare it to use up any (purposely) leftover vegetables from my fridge along with a baked tofu dish.
Leftovers are just as good as just cooked but beware, get them put away quickly before others decide to have seconds or thirds ;)

This recipe was an immediate favorite in our house! Probably the best fried rice I’ve ever had. And it was fun to make, too.

Wonderful recipe, Kathryne Taylor! I love how this vegetable fried rice focuses on fresh ingredients and a variety of colorful vegetables. Using brown rice and cooking the eggs, veggies, and rice separately is a great technique to get the perfect texture and flavor. It’s also a fantastic way to use leftover rice and vegetables from the fridge. This healthy and satisfying dish is perfect for anyone looking for an easy homemade vegetable fried rice recipe.

My favourite way of cooking brown rice is to use a large cast iron pot… bring 5 & 1/2 cups of water to a boil … add a little oil to boiling water and 3 cups of brown rice.. stir then cook “covered” for one hour in the oven at 350 degrees … this makes a large amount of rice which also freezes really well in batches for later

I just thaw these frozen packages of rice at a later date to make my fried rice

You can add soy sauce or Braggs while it is cooking … optional

I used brown jasmine rice and that worked fine. Also sauteed & shredded chicken tenders to add. Peas, asparagus, red pepper, zucchini, chard for veg. A little chili crisp to spice it up. A forgiving recipe very nicely seasoned. Thank you!

The BEST fried rice! I have made it twice now and it is easy and so yummy. I eat a plant-based diet, so no eggs but I took your suggestion and made a batch of your crispy baked tofu squares…perfect added to the fried rice dish at the end. With the edamame and the tofu this is a protein-rich meal.

Such an easy and versatile recipe! I make it when I leftover rice and use whatever vegetables I have on hand, it’s great every time and my carnivore husband just adds a little chicken to his half. Thanks for the recipe.

In reply to Anita Urcioli. Hi Anita, yes this works well as leftovers and can be reheated in the microwave or on a stovetop.
