Ingredients:

• Cooked Rice: 1 cup
• Eggs: 2 large

• Soy Sauce: 1 tablespoon
• Sesame Oil: 1 teaspoon
• Green Onions: 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Salt: to taste
• Pepper: to taste

Instructions:

1. Preparation: Spray a microwave-safe mug or bowl with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Combine Ingredients: In the mug, mix together cooked rice, frozen vegetables, soy sauce, sesame oil, and chopped green onions.
3. Add Eggs: Crack the eggs into the mug and stir until well combined with the rice mixture.
4. Microwave: Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the eggs are cooked and the rice is heated through.

6. Serve: Enjoy your Mug Egg Fried Rice straight from the mug or transfer to a plate. Optional: drizzle with extra soy sauce or sprinkle with sesame seeds for extra flavor.

Tips for Success:

• Use Cooked Rice: Leftover rice works best for this recipe as it’s already cooled and slightly dried, making it ideal for frying.
• Customize: Feel free to add in your favorite protein such as cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu for an extra boost of flavor and protein.
• Be Creative: Experiment with different seasonings and toppings to suit your taste preferences. Try adding minced garlic, grated ginger, or chili flakes for a spicy kick.
