Quarantine Fried Rice

Well… Well… Well… The title, Quarantine Fried Rice tells you what we have all been experiencing, you know just in case you have been living under a rock.

In March 2020 we are all faced with this; Shopping in huge quantities, stocking up on your already full pantry. Well in the midst of this all, I came up with a recipe that uses a lot of pantry staples which means you can make this amazing dish with only a couple of dollars.

It is named Quarantine fried rice because it makes use of a ton of canned/bottled pantry staples. It is almost like a Pilaf of some sorts.

Now, imagine all of the flavours, the nutrients packed in this. Sweet, tart, sour, crunchy all in one! This combination of flavours and textures though so simple will excite your tastebuds.
