I have to give credit to my BFF for introducing me to the Vegetable Fried Rice from Trader Joe's. It is sooooooo good! You can find it on the frozen section and I highly recommend you buy multiple bags because this recipe will be a great go to on those busy school nights. I like shrimp in my fried rice but you could easily bake some chicken tenders or pork tenderloins and add instead of shrimp. Let me know how your fried rice turns out and if you plan on adding it to the dinner time rotation.
