Simple Cookery Fried Rice

This is a dish that works well for brunch or for dinner. If you don't like sausage, substitute chicken, ham, beef or even make a vegetarian style. You can also add different veggies to stretch the meal. While the title says 'fried' rice, I don't really fry it. I use Uncle Ben's brown rice because it's ready in under two minutes in the microwave and has no added sodium. If you use one of the flavored blends, taste your dish before you add any salt. You can also use a mixture of brown, white or wild rice.
