Asian Edamame Fried Rice

Fried rice is one of my favorite foods to order!! Here I made a healthy vegetarian fried rice with edamame for protein that makes the perfect side dish for anything you’re making. Try it with this tofu stir fry, or this Kung Pao Tofu recipe.

How To Make Vegetarian Fried Rice

For this healthy vegetarian version of fried rice, I used leftover brown rice, edamame, carrots, scallions and onions. The beauty about making it yourself is you can add anything you want. If you want to make this a main dish you can add a protein such as chicken, shrimp or even tofu to keep it vegetarian. If you don’t have leftover rice or want to take the time to make it, I LOVE Trader Joe’s frozen (unseasoned) brown rice. It comes in a box with 3 packets (2 cups each) of par-cooked rice. It’s ready in 3 minutes and is perfect every time.

Shelled Edamame

Edamame, in case you’re not familiar with them are green soybean sold shelled or in the pod in most supermarkets both frozen or ready-to-eat – my two year is crazy about them!  I like to buy the shelled ready-to-eat for convenience.
