I love quick and easy dinners! As a busy mom of three kids, time on a weeknight is in shortage with soccer practices, Girl Scouts, homework, and the random things that pop up.

It is hard to believe I started making this back in 2015. I love to pick up the Hormel Pork Tenderloins when our Safeway has them for $5 on their $5 Friday. I love to use the Teriyaki pork tenderloin for our fried rice recipe.

How To Make pork tenderloin fried rice

Start cooking your rice on the stovetop or in a rice cooker.

You can mix in some garlic or broth to give your rice more flavor just be careful with adding extra salt in addition to the soy sauce. I use an older version of the Aroma rice cooker and have had it for over 7 years and love how well it works.

Slice up the Pork Tenderloin into small pieces. We made ours smaller as they cooked in the pan.

In a frying pan on high heat, place a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and allow it to warm up. Once warm, add in the pork tenderloin and cook until done.

Scramble up your eggs in a bowl and start to cook in a pan. I do mine on low heat, so they take longer to cook, but they also won’t burn as fast while you watch the meat and the rice.

Slice up your green onions.

Cook up the peas and carrots, I did a microwave steam bag so it was fast.

Once all the ingredients are done, vegetables are strained if needed; you are ready to mix your ingredients.

I mixed this up in the Tupperware Mega Bowl. My mom got this for me, and it has been amazing at mixing everything!! It’s called THATSA® MEGA BOWL; we have used it for everything.
