Inspiration: Leftovers!

You guys have all probably been doing this forever, but tonight we had the best dinner! I had a bunch of leftover white rice (planned-over, actually, from last night) and a bunch of random assorted leftover vegetables in our refrigerator from meals past. Tonight I threw it all in the wok with a chopped onion simmered in sesame oil (any oil would work, of course) and a chopped up chicken breast. I also added garlic salt, a little stir-fry sauce that we had in the frig (soy sauce or broth or anything would work fine too), and when it was all cooked, I cracked an egg on top and flipped it around until the egg was cooked and mixed in.

Voila! Seven-Ingredient Fried Rice! It used up every single random leftover I had! Everyone loved it--and they never would have wanted all those leftover vegetables if they were just nekkid. :)
