Sheet Pan Fried Rice

This is such a great way to use leftover rice! And this sheet pan version is so easy with the crispiest edges. SO GOOD.

I am all for repurposing leftovers. And I am even more for it when you can make the best kind of fried rice on a sheet pan, yielding the crispiest, crunchiest edges.

The secret to this is using leftover dried out rice (brown or white). And you can also repurpose any leftover veggies here for a clean-out-the-fridge type meal. If you don’t like carrots or peas or mushrooms, you can leave it out and sub a veggie to your liking like zucchini, broccoli, bell pepper, asparagus or even cabbage.

Serve with fried eggs (over easy or sunny side up or even soft boiled eggs), garnished with green onions and toasted sesame seeds for a complete meal.
