Chicken & Vegetables Medley Fried Rice Recipe

I had to go A&E on Tuesday when I had really bad nausea that made me vomit the whole day till I suffered from severe dehydration. Nearly passed out at the hospital so I had to be put on drip. Not an exciting week for me indeed. Been having flu symptoms for 1.5 months but never did recover properly and they seemed to just get worse and worse each time. Thank goodness it wasn’t anything life threatening but the doctor said I was just plain unlucky to be one of those uncommon cases to get a bacterial infection, one after another (and after another). So yes, I’m on my 3rd consecutive course of antibiotics. Geez.


Appetite had been really poor these couple of days so I asked the husband to go grab an assortment of vegetables from the supermarket so I could whip up something with more greens in it and that was how I came up with this medley fried rice. Loved the colours and the crunch from the veggies. It wasn’t too heavy on the palate and it was so easy to make this. Give it a try!

      Hi Chitra, thanks for your concern. I actually feel much better now with my 3rd course of antibiotics. Hopefully I have won the battle over the nuisance bacteria! I went for my follow up medical appointment this morning and everything seemed positive so I’m really alright. Hope you are having a good start to the new week! Take care my friend!
