Ingredients: 2 tablespoons peanut oil; 1/4 pound sliced white button mushrooms or one 4-ounce can sliced mushrooms, rinsed and drained; 2 1/2 cups cooked brown rice; 2 tablespoons soy sauce; 1 large egg, beaten; 6 slices bacon, crisp cooked and finely crumbled; 2 green onions, trimmed and finely chopped

Cooks' Note

Finely chopped, cooked pork, ham, or shrimp can be substituted for bacon. The key to stir-frying is to make sure that the pan is very hot before you start and to keep the food moving quickly, using a wooden spoon or paddle or two. Use leftover brown rice if you have any on hand; it will reheat nicely as you stir-fry.
