4 cups cooked brown rice

1 bunch of scallions, chopped; white and green parts separated

olive oil

3 eggs, beaten

2 cups of frozen mixed veggies (a mix with peas, carrots, green beans, corn, and edamame is great)

2 T soy sauce

¼ tsp white pepper

½ tsp turbinado sugar

Heat a wok over medium heat. Add in 1 tsp oil, heat, and then add the white parts of the scallions. Saute scallions for about 15 seconds and then add the beaten eggs. Scramble with a wooden spoon.

When eggs are lightly scrambled, add in rice, frozen vegetables, soy sauce, white pepper, and sugar. Toss until all ingredients are warmed through. Season to taste with any of the seasonings. Mix in green parts of the scallions.
