Protein Fried Rice

The recipe turned out really creamy and tasty. I did have to add more water since the protein powder was added. I also chose to add the salt at the very end. I try to cook with as little salt as possible, so if you are one that prefers to have a more salty dish, please add to your liking. This is a great dish to serve on the side or just to dish out and eat by itself. You can also top it with some vegan sour cream to add to the creaminess. I also choose to buy local organic veggies and spices, so all of my ingredients will be NON-GMO and Organic even if they are not listed as such.
