Pork Fried Rice

This post is for Chris and Yoda.  For those of you who don't know, Yoda is our beagle.  She owns our house and lets Chris and me live here and pay the bills...and of course cook.  One night a week I have dinner at my Mom's and Chris and Yoda have Chinese food.  Yoda's favorite is BBQ pork fried rice and if you say, "Yoda, is it rice night?",  she knows what you are talking about.  This is a pretty easy recipe and if I am so inclined, I will barbeque the pork before adding to the rice.  Otherwise, Yo will have to suck it up...

1 tsp. canola oil
2 eggs, beaten
3 C. cooked rice
2 C. cubed cooked pork
1/2 C. frozen pease, thawed
1/4 C. reduced sodium soy sauce
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
2 C. shredded lettuce (I'll probably go easy on this)
2 green onions, thinly sliced

Heat oil over medium high heat in a large skillet or wok.  Pour eggs in.  As eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath.  When eggs are completely coked, remove to plate.  Set aside.

Combine rice, pork, peas, soy sauce, and garlic powder in the same skillet; heat through.  Meanwhile, chop eggs into small pieces; add to skillet.

Remove from heat, stir in lettuce and onions.

Serve immediately.
