Shrimp Fried Rice

My children love ordering fried rice when we go out to our favorite Thai restaurant. They always order Pineapple Fried Rice and it comes to the table served on in a big giant plate in the shape of a bowl. It is garnished with fresh tomatoes and cilantro leaves, the presentation is well done. I take a few nibbles and say, “I should make that it would be really easy.” I do enjoy making fried rice every now and then, it is one of my go to menu items whenever I have lots of leftover rice on hand. Well if I can use it before Ted gives it to Buster, he loves leftover rice too! Ha, ha, ha . . . This recipe is so easy and you can use leftover vegetables and leftover rice if you have it on hand. If not no worries, simply prepare 1 cup of rice and use 2 cups of frozen vegetables. The mixed vegetable packages can be found in your local grocery store’s freezer section. This particular organic blend had carrots, peas, green beans, soy beans, and corn. I used canned pineapple because I didn’t have any fresh pineapple on hand. I did have leftover rice so it made this recipe a breeze to prepare. I also had some shrimp thawed about one pound. I like lots of shrimp in my recipes! Bon Appetit, Cecelia
