Hawaiian Fried Rice image

Growing up in the South Pacific, rice was the mainstay of our diet. When my husband and I moved stateside, we created this Hawaiian fried rice recipe. We bring this dish to every potluck, and it's always the hit of the party. -Janice Edwards, Plainville, Illinois

Mixture should set immediately at edge. As eggs set, push cooked portions toward center, letting uncooked portions flow underneath. When eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains, remove to a cutting board and chop., In same pan, heat 1 tablespoon margarine over medium-high heat. Add Spam and onion; cook and stir until Spam is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes. Add mixed vegetables, garlic and pepper; cook until heated through. Stir in cooked rice, soy sauce and remaining 1/2 cup margarine; cook and stir until margarine is melted. Gently stir in eggs. If desired, top with sliced green onion.
