Don’t get me wrong, I really like regular shrimp fried rice. But sometimes it’s nice to have a version that’s loaded with extra veggies! One thing I love about this recipe is how quickly it comes together. Shrimp takes less than 5 minutes to cook and the frozen veggies sauté in just minutes as well. Even better, everything in this recipe cooks in one wok or skillet so there is minimal cleanup. The soy sauce, sesame oil, and a generous amount of seasoning gives this simple recipe so much flavor. Best of all, the first time I made this dish, I was able to use all ingredients I already had in my pantry, fridge, and freezer. I always like to have frozen shrimp and vegetables on hand so I can create meals just like this. I hope you give this recipe a try and enjoy as much as I did. If you do give it a try, let me know what you think!
