EASY FRIED RICE

This is another “basic” recipe that is adaptable depending on what you have.  If you don’t have onion soup mix, use 1/2 to 1 tsp ground black or white pepper, 1/2 to 1 tsp salt, 1 TB dried onion.   You can also use chopped hard boiled eggs or leave the eggs out all together. 
We serve this with a big salad as a meal on it’s own, or we use it with grilled meats as a side dish.
1/4 cup olive oil
4 cups cooked rice
2 cloves  garlic, finely minced
1 envelope dry onion soup mix
1/2 cup water
1  Tbsp soy sauce

In skillet, heat oil over med high heat and warm  rice. Stirring constantly
for 2 minutes. Stir in garlic. Stir in soup mix  blended with water and soy
sauce. Cook 1 minute. Stir in peas. Cook 2  minutes. Stir in cooked eggs.
