Growing up, I remember my dad making these for me every time we had leftover rice in the fridge. I generally make these for breakfast but occasionally enjoy them for dinner when my husband is out of town and I want to make something quick and easy. This recipe is a great base. Have fun changing it up and making it your own! Great topped with salsa!

This could be a good recipe, except when I double the portion, 2 eggs are too much. I recommend 1 egg for 1 cup of rice. Read More

I usually give my leftover rice to the birds however this Recipe is Exceptional! I've found it's delicious with maple syrup along with whipped cream. I would however omit the Pepper and Basil if you were to try that. Read More
