Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked rice

- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 2 stalks (chopped) Green onions (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt

Instructions
1. Gather all the ingredients and make sure the cooked rice is warm. If using cold leftover rice, reheat it gently in the microwave or on the stovetop.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

6. Stir the eggs and rice together until well combined and the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and fluffy.
7. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs and rice. Stir gently until the cheese melts and coats the mixture evenly.
8. Remove the skillet from the heat and taste. Adjust the seasoning with more salt or black pepper if necessary.
