Healthy Pork Fried Rice

written by Emma Tang

This healthy pork fried rice is loaded with fresh ingredients and can be made in just 15 minutes! Who said healthy and delicious can’t go hand in hand?

Healthy Pork Fried RiceOver the years, I have made many different versions of fried rice. Because this recipe is super versatile! You probably have most of the ingredients in the fridge already, making a fried rice is a great way to clear out the fridge.

Ingredients:

To make the fried rice, I used: pork, egg, carrot, red pepper, broccoli, onion and leftover rice. You can use other types of protein or veggies that’s available, no need to make a trip to the grocery store! 

Pork Fried RiceFor seasonings, all this dish requires are salt, pepper and soy sauce. Real simple! We want just enough seasoning but not overpowering, so the natural flavors of the ingredients could shine through. 

   Besides easy to prepare, being budget friendly is certainly another bonus. To create a filling and satisfying meal for your whole family, it usually costs less than ten dollars.

My favorite way of enjoying the pork fried rice is with a bowl of miso soup and a small plate of pickled vegetable as sides. In our house, home-cooked fried rice always beats take-out.

I made this with Chicken and it was very easy to make and delicious. I served it with vegetable spring rolls. When I made it I forgot to add up the calories so it would be great to know the calories when you post recipes. I used avocado oil when I made and I was wondering if you’ve made this with sesame oil or any other type of oil.
