Ingredients

• 3 cups cooked white or brown rice
• 1 cup diced cooked ham
• 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
• 2 eggs
• 3 stalks green onions (sliced)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 3 tablespoons coconut aminos (soy-free alternative to soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare all your ingredients in advance: dice the ham, mince the garlic, and slice the green onions. If your mixed vegetables are frozen, allow them to thaw slightly.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the diced ham and cook until it begins to brown slightly, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the ham from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and scramble them, breaking them into small pieces as they cook, about 1-2 minutes. Remove the scrambled eggs and set aside with the ham.

Step 5

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sesame oil to the empty skillet. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the mixed vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are tender and slightly golden.

Step 7

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the cooked rice. Stir the rice for 2 minutes, allowing it to heat through and lightly toast.

Step 8

Return the ham and scrambled eggs to the skillet and mix them with the vegetables and rice.

Step 9

Drizzle the coconut aminos over the mixture and stir well, ensuring the seasoning is evenly distributed. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Finally, garnish the fried rice with sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
