Veggie Fried Rice...or why Pinterest is driving me crazy!

As stated before, I really love Pinterest. I use it all the time to find ideas for dinners for the family, not to mention kid crafts, decorating ideas, and anything else you could think of. However, the reason why I continue to post recipes here is because occasionally, a recipe I love on Pinterest suddenly disappears. You click on the picture you diligently filed away for future use, and the recipe attached to it is gone!

That happened to me today, unfortunately, it happened before I posted the recipe here. And even worse, it was one that P actually liked! Luckily, thanks to the power of google, i was able to find the original post here. What a relief! This is turning into one of our regular meals, meaning I'll make it at least once or twice a year.

2 TB olive oil, divided
