Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them.

- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1/2 tbsp of olive oil.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the shrimps and cook for 3-4 minutes, until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from skillet and set aside.

- Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Add the cooked brown rice to the skillet with the vegetables.
- Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes until the rice is heated through.
- Return the scrambled eggs and cooked shrimp to the skillet.
- Pour in the soy sauce and sprinkle the salt over the mixture.

- Divide the mixture into bowls.
- Garnish each bowl with sesame seeds.

Tips:
- Use day-old brown rice for the best texture; fresh rice can be too moist for stir-frying.
- To save time, you can buy pre-cooked, peeled, and deveined shrimp.
- Cut all vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
- Do not overcook the shrimp; they should be pink and just opaque to maintain their tender texture.
- Customize your bowl by adding other vegetables like carrots, broccoli, or snap peas.
- For extra flavor, add a splash of sesame oil or a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
