Roast Pork and Bacon Fried Rice image

I made a bacon wrapped pork loin for dinner and had some left over. Not enough for two people, so I "stretched" it by making fried rice. The bacon gave the rice a wonderful smokey taste and the water chestnuts gave it that special crunch. All in all, this is some tasty fried rice!
