Broccoli Fried Rice

Happy 5 year blog-o-versary to me!  Quite a bit has changed in the last 5 years, and I hope you've enjoyed the ride so far!

We've already turned our favorite chicken fried rice into homemade takeout, so I wanted to try a veggie version.  I took the same recipe, but switched out chicken for broccoli.  It turned out pretty good, although the kids definitely preferred the chicken version.

Ingredients:

• 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 2-3 carrots, finely chopped
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 eggs
• 4 cups cooked rice (I used about 1 1/3 cups dry brown rice)
• 5-6 Tbsp. soy sauce
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1-2 cups frozen broccoli

Directions:

Heat olive oil over medium heat in large skillet.  Add carrots and onion, and saute until soft, about 5 minutes.  Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.  Move veggies off to the side and scramble 2 eggs, stirring occasionally until cooked.  Mix into veggies and add remaining ingredients, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is cooked.
