shortcut shrimp & veggie fried rice
This is one of my favorite "go to" recipes for those days when I'm in a rush or I just don't feel like cooking. When asparagus and snap peas aren't available, I use frozen broccoli and frozen peas.The shrimp thaw quickly under running water, but you can use leftover chicken, beef or pork if you like.
