FRIED RICE

Ingredients:
4 cups white rice, cooked per package directions (boil-in bags work great)
2 Tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil
½ cup onion, chopped
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup peas
1 cup red bell pepper, diced
1 tsp garlic powder
3 Tbsp soy sauce
*****
Heat oil in a large skillet. Sauté onion and red bell pepper for about 2 minutes. Add in rice and sauté together for about 5 minutes (the rice should start to brown a bit). Mix in peas, garlic powder and soy sauce. Cook over medium high heat for another 5 minutes. Move rice mixture to one side of the skillet and add eggs to the open area of the skillet; scramble eggs. Then mix the eggs in with the rice.
