Image via WikipediaFried rice is a nice dish to use up what you have on hand, be it veggies or meats. If you just add some rice to your leftovers, you have a dish. So why not make it shrimp? This is a great way to use up any leftover shrimp from an appetizer tray of shrimp and dip. Once the rice is cooked, this dish doesn't take long to assemble because it's already cooked and you're just warming flavors. If you like a little heat, throw in some crushed red pepper to fire things up.
