Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Carrots, diced
- 0.5 cup Frozen peas

Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the gluten-free soy sauce or tamari and sesame oil. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them until fully cooked. Remove the scrambled eggs from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the diced carrots, bell pepper, and frozen peas to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the vegetables are tender.
Add the cooked gluten-free sausage slices and the chopped green onions to the skillet. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the cooked and chilled rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps of rice with a spatula.
Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil mixture evenly over the rice and stir everything together to combine well.
Stir in the scrambled eggs, then season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until everything is well mixed and heated through.
Remove from heat and serve hot. Enjoy your gluten-free vegetable and sausage fried rice!
