Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice
You can use your choice of protein here; I recommend precooked chicken or shrimp.If you are using uncooked protein, cook it ahead of time, either before or after the eggs and then put it aside until later in the steps.If you're not nut-free you can also ½ cup chopped raw, unsalted cashews when adding the protein.
