Shrimp Fried Rice

4 from 1 vote

Shrimp is one of our favorite proteins, especially when quick meals need to happen. Keep it on hand in the freezer because it thaws so quickly under cold running water! Use frozen veggies and frozen brown rice (microwave right in the bag) and it could not get easier!
