Apparently, the theme of this week is finding ways not to waste leftovers and reincarnate meals into new and tasty entrees. While the garlic lime cilantro rice was a delicious side yesterday, I made way too much rice for 2.5 people. Have no fear; creativity is here.
Crab Fried Rice
- 2 cups of leftover cooked garlic lime cilantro rice
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup of frozen peas, thawed
- 10 grape tomatoes, halved
- 6 oz. can of fancy crab meat
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Heat olive oil in a medium frying pan over medium high heat. Add rice and tomatoes. Cook for 3-5 minutes. Stirring occasionally. Then, add crab meat and peas and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Finally, pour in egg and stir to mix together. Cook for 2 more minutes. Now, eat!
