This is a very quick and easy meal to prepare, make as per the recipe or simply search through your fridge to see what vegetables you have on hand, really any vegetable can be added to this dish.
I only add a little dash of soy sauce to the rice mixture while in the frying pan, as each of us like a different mild/strong soy flavour, so we add a little more to our bowls if needed.

I made this tonight! Great recipe to follow and all agreed by my family (just 3 in my family) for a big thumbs up! It was instant add to my family favourites for future meal plan (which is a BIG part of my weekly schedules!). Thanks for sharing.
So glad they liked it!
I love making fried rice. I also lightly whisk a couple of eggs and pour into the pan while the bacon is browning. Then once the bacon is browned and the egg has cooked and firmed up just break it apart with tongs/spoon and mix through the bacon and onion.
Thanks for all the wonderful recipes!
