EASY BACON FRIED RICE
This is a fried rice recipe that I luckily created from practically threadbare cabinets one evening. It's the epitome of comfort food and is a breeze to make. The green beans really complement the flavors but feel free to use any veggie you have on hand. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until just beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Drain all but 1 to 2 teaspoons of bacon grease from the skillet. Add green beans, onion, and garlic; saute until bacon is crisp and green beans and onions are softened, about 3 minutes.
- Push bacon mixture to one side of the skillet; heat sesame oil on the empty side, about 30 seconds. Pour in egg; cook until just set, about 1 minute. Stir into bacon mixture to combine. Mix in rice. Stir in soy sauce, a tablespoon at a time, until rice is evenly coated. Cook until rice is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.

FRIED RICE WITH BACON, SCALLIONS AND WATER CHESTNUTS
This is very tasty and pretty quick too. I have used brown rice in place of the white rice and that works just as well. Not always for your Asian dinners, this goes well with traditional pork and chicken dishes too. This is adapted from Gourmet magazine, Jan. 1999.
