Directions

In a large skillet or wok, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, lightly beat 2 large eggs in a small bowl. Set aside.
To the hot pan of oil, add 1/2 cup of chopped carrots and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add 4 chopped green onions and 2 minced garlic cloves and continue to stir-fry for another minute.
Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble for 30 to 45 seconds.
Add 3 cups of well-chilled, previously cooked, long-grain brown rice and stir-fry for several minutes. Make sure the rice is well incorporated with the egg and the other ingredients.
Season the rice with the soy sauce, salt, and pepper and continue heating until the rice is hot.
Serve the rice immediately. Use the fried rice as a main meal or a side dish; as a bed for grilled chicken, turkey, or fish; or as an accompaniment for stir-fried beef or pork dishes.
