Beef Teriyaki Fried Rice

This is the perfect meal for that small amount of left over ground beef that remains after making burgers. I know it sounds weird, but this is so good. I came up with it one night when I had some leftover rice and a bit of ground beef in the fridge. Quick, easy and delicious. You can easily change the vegetables for whatever you have on hand. Measurements are approximate, and should work well being adjusted to whatever is in your fridge.
