Teriyaki Fried RiceJennifer Martiné

Warm and nourishing, this panfried rice is a brown-bag favorite. The dish starts with a couple of scrambled eggs to which rice, edamame, and seasonings are added. If you happen to be making eggs for breakfast, it's just a few extra steps to make this savory lunch dish. Naturally, brown rice is more nutritious than white. Leftover farro or barley make tasty substitutions.

MAKE-AHEAD NOTES:

Can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator. In the morning before school, warm up and pack into the thermoses.
