Fried rice is one of the simplest Asian-inspired dishes you can easily make at home, and it's a great way to use up leftover rice from last night's dinner, or even the day before. This recipe features white rice stir-fried with onions, bell peppers, and canned pineapple chunks, along with leftover slices of spicy pepperoni and mozzarella from a pizza, all tossed in a little pizza sauce. Top with basil and serve immediately to enjoy the crispy rice and sausage.
