So good and easy to throw together! I used lite Spam, red peppers, carrots, onions, peas, corn, a dash of both sesame oil and hot sauce. Yum!

We liked how easy and quick this was to make. We used chicken breast, mixed veggies, green onions, eggs, and the seasoning items in recipe. We will try this again with BBQ Pork and shrimp.

I love the versatility of this recipe!!! I used brown basmati rice, celery, onions, pimentos and chopped spinach and it made for a great vegetarian dish.
