This is my new go-to fried rice recipe! Healthy and flavorful and the big bonus, DH loved it too (edamame and all)! There is nothing I would change about it! Going into my Best OF cookbook!! Made for Spring Photo Tag.

This is a delicious fried rice dish -- flavorful and it makes a really nice presentation. Made as directed using organic edamame and one small addition -- I served a little sesame oil on top. Served this with Asian lettuce wraps and what a wonderful meal it made. Made for ZWT9.

This was nicely flavored, yet mild. It was a nice side for a baked Asian fish. I used long grain rice and substituted peas for the edamame. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

I really enjoyed this. It was filling and flavorful. I scaled the recipe back for one person and wished I'd made more. Thanks! Made for ZWT 2013 by one of the Hot Stuff.
