Weekly Recipe: Beggin' Egg and Cheese Fried Rice

Serves 1

Ingredients

2 slices turkey bacon

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1/2 cup cooked brown rice

1 large egg, beaten

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Preparation

In a medium nonstick skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp, about 5 minutes.  Drain on paper towels, then finely chop.

In the same skillet, heat the oil over high heat.  Add the rice and cook, stirring often, until warmed through, about 4 minutes.  Add the cooked bacon and toss.  Push the rice mixture to the side of the pan; add the egg to the pan and cook, stirring, until set, then stir into the rice.  Transfer to a bowl, top with the cheddar and let cool.  Sprinkle with the parsley. 

Finished - ENJOY!
