Edamame Fried Rice
Create a nutritious twist on your beloved takeout with this delightful Asian edamame fried rice! While I can’t resist a good Chinese fried rice, it’s hard to tell how much oil is used when you eat out. Preparing it at home not only allows you to control the ingredients but is also a simple and healthier option.
