Spam fried rice is a great, economical meal that makes an easy weeknight dinner or quick lunch! The spam gets nice and crispy, the eggs are fluffy, and the veggies add the perfect pop of sweetness and color.
Heat the oil in a large deep skillet or wok over medium high heat.
Add the Spam to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the onions and cook for 2 more minutes.
Add the garlic and ginger and continue cooking for 30 seconds.
Add the peas and carrots to the skillet and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
Add rice to the skillet, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring often.
Push everything in the pan off to the side and crack the eggs into the empty space of the pan. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon soy sauce and stir to break up the eggs. When eggs are cooked through, stir them into the rice mixture.
Remove from the heat and top with scallions. Add a drizzle of sesame oil and sriracha, if desired.

Notes
We love the flavor of sesame oil and sriracha drizzled over our fried rice, but these are optional.
