Does fried rice pack a protein punch?

I've always loved indulging in a plate of fried rice, but I'm curious – does it offer a decent amount of protein? I'm trying to up my protein intake, and if fried rice can help with that, it's a win-win! Any insights on its protein content? Thanks in advance!

Fried rice can have protein if it's got eggs or meat mixed in. But it's not as high as straight-up meat. For more protein, add extra eggs or some chicken, beef, or tofu. Just watch out for too much oil or salt, keep it balanced.

Fried rice can definitely pack a protein punch, especially if you add ingredients like chicken, shrimp, tofu, or eggs. These protein-rich additions not only enhance the flavor but also make the dish more satisfying and nutritious. So, feel free to load up your fried rice with your favorite protein sources for a delicious and filling meal!
