Transform Your Rice Dish with Delicious Pineapple Fried Rice Recipe

I am always looking for new recipes to try and ways to incorporate nutrients and protein into our food. Growing up, I had eaten ham fried rice when I was younger. However, being vegetarian, being vegetarian, I needed to find an alternative for the protein. And in addition to that, I wanted to feel good about eating it and feeding it to my three-year-old son, A. As usual, I tried to incorporate a lot of seeds and nuts. Below is my pineapple fried rice recipe.
