Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

tip 1
You’ll find the rice and vermicelli mix where the rice mixes are located in the grocery store. The fried rice variety contains almonds, which add flavor and crunch to this dish.
tip 2
Use 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger instead of the fresh gingerroot.
tip 3
Fresh sugar snap peas can be used instead of the frozen.
tip 4
Pick up some frozen egg rolls to heat and serve with this dish.
