    Leftover pork and rice changes from boring to tasty in this simple, quick Pork Fried Rice recipe that is a great way to use up leftovers and veggies in the fridge

    bowl of pork fried rice in a white cup with sriracha sauce

    I apologize for the most uninspiring post ever. Yesterday, I never went outside. No that's a lie, I went outside once... to the front porch to take pictures of some pancakes.

    Either way, we have been trapped inside.

    Oh wait, I did something... I turned this yummy pork tenderloin into some delicious pork fried rice.

    It's great if you're trying to get rid of things in your kitchen. The vegetables I used can totally be changed, and you can use leftover cooked chicken or shrimp in place of the pork. Or just make vegetarian fried rice and add an extra egg.
