Pineapple Fried Rice

Green onions, diced
Yellow onion, diced
Red bell pepper, diced
Sesame oil (or peanut oil)
Pineapple, diced
Brown rice, cooked
Hot sauce
Salt (optional)

Heat up a deep sauté pan over medium heat. Pour a couple tablespoons of sesame oil in the pan and add the yellow onion, red bell pepper, and green onions. Sauté about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the pineapple and sauté for another minute. Add in your rice and a dash of hot sauce (I like Sriracha hot sauce) and mix well. 

Saute for another 5 minutes until the rice starts to brown. Remove from heat and serve. Season with salt if you think you need it. 

Tip: Frozen pineapple works great if you can’t find a fresh one at your grocery store.
