Mmm. Fried Rice. Somehow this vegan vegetable fried rice has become a staple comfort food around here lately.
The kids love it, which is such a huge bonus. Even as teenagers they’re still pretty picky sometimes.
*(I cook our rice in the microwave in The Pampered Chef Rice Cooker and I mince my garlic in the Pampered Chef Garlic Press.)
