Nutrition Packed Vegetable Fried Rice

After two weeks of illness, it's time to pull out the "big guns", and I don't mean Lysol and disinfecting wipes. I mean some seriously healthy food that's packed with protein, fiber, and lots of vitamins and minerals-- Veggie Fried Rice!

Prep all your veggies beforehand to speed up the cooking process

A bit of a cheat, but it makes putting this dish together so quick!

You can always add more oil, so use as little as possible to prevent sticking
