HG's Veggie-rific Fried Rice
Fry It, You'll Like It...

This new swap for fried rice is getting rave reviews... from US! We packed it 
with veggies, fluffy Egg Beaters, and good hearty brown rice. The flavor is
ALL there... the only thing missing is the oil!

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked brown rice, fridge temperature
2 cups frozen diced carrots and peas
1 cup chopped bean sprouts
1 cup chopped mushrooms
3/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like 
Egg Beaters Original)
1/4 cup chopped scallions
One packet (about 1 oz.) fried rice seasoning mix (like the kind by 
Kikkoman
 or 
Sun-Bird)
1 tbsp. light or low-sodium soy sauce
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
1/ 8 tsp. ground ginger
salt and pepper, to taste 

Directions:
In a small dish, combine seasoning mix, garlic powder, and ground ginger with 
soy sauce and 3 tbsp. warm water. Using a fork or whisk, stir until seasoning
mix has dissolved. Set aside.

Spray a wok or very large pan with nonstick spray, and bring it to medium heat 
on the stove. Add egg substitute and scramble until cooked, using a spatula
to break it up into bite-sized pieces. Remove scrambled bits from the wok or 
pan and set aside.

Add mushrooms and frozen vegetables to the wok or pan, and cook and stir until 
mushrooms have softened and all veggies are hot. Remove veggies and set
aside with the egg-y bits.

Remove your wok or pan from heat, re-spray with nonstick spray, and bring to 
high heat on the stove. Add rice and seasoning mixture, and stir to combine.
Add bean sprouts, scallions and the previously cooked veggies and scrambled 
eggs, and mix thoroughly to integrate. Cook and stir until entire mixture is
hot, there is no liquid left in the pan, and rice is just beginning to crisp. 
Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Scoop into bowls and serve! (Chopsticks not required.)
