Chinese Shrimp Fried Rice

Fried rice is an extremely versatile dish. If you don't have shrimp, leave it out; you could also use leftover chicken (roasted or grilled chicken). You can also swap in different vegetables such as frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, corn, green beans, peas), or some leafy green vegetables.
