Ingredients:

2 large
eggs (use higher omega-3 fatty acid eggs if available)
1/4 cup
egg substitute
1 tablespoon
canola oil
1
sweet or yellow onion, finely chopped
2 to 3 teaspoons
minced garlic (depending on your preference)
1/2 teaspoon
salt (optional)
1/2 teaspoon
black pepper
2 tablespoons
catsup
1 cup
finely diced tomato
1/4 cup
low-fat milk (or substitute whole milk or fat-free half-and-half)
one or two pinch
saffron (available in small jars in the spice section of your market)
one or two pinch
curry powder
1/4 teaspoon
coconut extract
4 cups
cooked brown rice (use a rice cooker, or cook on the stove)
8 ounces or more
shrimp (frozen, cooked, shelled and de-veined , thawed) or diced tofu; or cooked and shredded or diced chicken, beef, or pork)
1/2 cup
chopped green onions
1/4 cup
chopped fresh cilantro leaves
canola spray

Add eggs and egg substitute to medium bowl and beat with fork until well blended. Coat a large, nonstick wok or frying pan with canola cooking spray and start heating over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg mixture and either scramble or cook like an omelet (your choice). Set cooked eggs aside. If you made an omelet, cut into shreds before setting aside.
To the same wok or frying pan, add canola oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and stir-fry until golden (a few minutes). Add salt (if desired), pepper, catsup, and diced tomato, and continue to stir-fry for a minute or two. Meanwhile, add the milk, saffron, curry and coconut extract to a 1-cup measure and stir to blend.
Add the brown rice, shrimp and coconut milk mixture to the wok with the onion mixture and continue to stir-fry for a couple more minutes. Stir in the cooked egg pieces or strips.
Arrange each serving of rice in a bowl and garnish with green onions and cilantro.
