Chicken Fried Rice

Okay, so this is one of my all time favorite recipes.  It is so good!  My kids all love it too.  This makes a ton of food, so I just serve it as a main dish, but you could scale it down for a side dish or use it as a side dish to feed a crowd.  This will not disappoint and as a bonus it taste great as leftovers.
