Quick Dinner -Rice with Beef

This recipe is very similar to fried rice or plov but my very own easy version of a quick lunch or dinner. This is another recipe that calls for my baked beef in the oven. Because i always have that beef meat on hand, it is a life saver on busy days. This dish comes together in under 30 minutes and if you do have leftovers, it reheats very well too.
