3 cups cooked white rice (instant or not)
3 Tbsp sesame oil
1 c frozen peas and carrots (thawed)
1 small onion, chopped
2 tsp minced garlic
2 eggs, slightly beaten

On medium high heat, heat the oil in a large skillet or wok. Add the peas/carrots mix, onion, and garlic. Stir fry until tender. Lower the heat to medium low and push the mixture off to one side, then pour your eggs on the other side of skillet and stir fry until scrambled.
