Convenience foods like frozen cooked shrimp and frozen cooked rice, shredded carrots, and a big batch of roasted veggies in the fridge, are key to getting this meal on the table fast. You don't even need to defrost the rice or shrimp first since they thaw and cook quickly in a pan over medium-high heat.
Ingredients
4 sprays cooking spray
1 cup non-starchy roasted vegetables without oil, such as broccoli
1 cup cooked medium-grain brown rice
3 oz cooked frozen shrimp
1 large egg
½ cup shredded carrots
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce, or to taste
2 tbsp uncooked scallions, sliced
Instructions
Heat a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat; add roasted vegetables, rice, and shrimp; toss and heat through.
Push rice mixture to side of pan and crack egg in middle; scramble egg. Stir egg into rice mixture, add carrots and sprinkle with soy sauce; warm through and garnish with scallions.
