This vegetable fried rice is a super delicious one-pot dish that comes together in only 20 minutes. It’s vegan, gluten-free, soy-free and absolutely delicious. I usually make a big batch because this fried rice is amazing for meal prep. You can use any vegetables you enjoy or you currently have in your fridge to use up. I always add carrots, zucchini, cabbage, peas and red bell pepper. This dish is of course soy-free, so I used coconut aminos instead. Coconut aminos taste just like soy-sauce but it’s a healthier alternative. This vegetable fried rice is filled to the brim with nutritious vegetables, delicious spices and it’s the ultimate comfort food.
