Got a ton of rice leftovers? Since rice is both filling and relatively neutral in flavor, it can be used to prepare a new meal fairly easily! Leftover rice can come in real handy when you are in a hurry and want to make a quick and filling meal. So, the next time you find yourself with an extra bowl of rice, do not throw it away. Use it to make this vegetable and fried rice dish instead. It’s an easy and versatile dish and is perfect for vegetarians.
