BLT Rice Dishes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Sandwich-Inspired Fried Rice Recipe Makes an Easy Weekday Main Course

— October 6, 2015 — Lifestyle
This unusual fried rice recipe is one way to change up the starches you serve. From I Am A Food Blog, the BLT fried rice is extremely versatile as it can be served as either a side, main or leftovers-transforming dish. Given that this fried rice recipe contains your important food groups (protein, grains and vegetables), it could easily serve as a main course you can quickly whip up for a weekday meal.

In addition to a very hot pan, you will need delicious ingredients including chopped up bacon slices, diced onion, old and cold jasmine rice, shredded romaine lettuce and halved cherry tomatoes. You can also add salt and pepper plus sliced green onions as a garnish.
