Fried Rice with Bacon and an Abundance of Vegetables


This is one of those dishes where you clean out your fridge and use whatever you have on hand.  I do that a lot and included an entire bag of frozen vegetables.  Frozen vegetables are not my favorite, but I purchased it about a month ago in anticipation of the possibility of food being scarce, due to covid-19.  Certain store shelves (paper goods) have been cleared, but I'm glad food is not scarce.  Here's how my dish was made.

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 package bacon, chopped
  • 1/2 block tofu, chopped into cubes
  • 3 cups pak choy, chopped
  • 2 heaping spoonfuls minced garlic
  • 2 cups chopped celery
  • 1 bag frozen mixed veggies
  • 1/4 c oyster sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 Tablespoon hot chili oil
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice (it was a little less than one cup)
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions.
Instructions:
  1. Prepare ingredients as described above (chop, mince).
  2. Stir fry bacon until cooked.
  3. Add garlic, celery, pak choy, mixed veggies, tofu, soy sauce, sesame oil, hot chili oil. 
  4. Stir fry.
  5. Add rice and stir fry, mixing well.
  6. Add green onions.  Mix well.
  7. Enjoy.
