From Company's Coming - Casseroles..a simple family meal.  I have changed it slightly.

Water 2 1/2 cups

1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 tbsp olive oil
Water chestnuts, sliced, drained 284 ml
Celery stalks, sliced thinly on angle - 2
Chopped Green Pepper 1/4 cup
Chopped fresh green onion tops 1/3 cup
Chopped pimiento or strips  2 tbsp
Cooked turkey, cut up  2 cups
Onion, thinly sliced 1/2 cup
Butter 1/2 cup
Eggs, fork beaten 3
Salt 1/2 tsp
Pepper 1/2 tsp
Canned Bean Sprouts with juice 540 ml
Soy Sauce 1 tbsp

Prepare minute rice, cool.

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and add mushrooms.  Cook until browned.  Remove and cool.  In large bowl combine mushrooms, water chestnuts, celery, green pepper, green onions, pimiento, turkey and sliced onions.  Set aside.

Melt butter in frying pan, add slightly beaten eggs, salt and pepper.  Fry for a few minutes, stirring with fork to keep broken up.   Do not allow eggs to become too firm.  Add rice and meat mixture.  Stir to combine over low heat.  Add a bit of water to simmer if to dry.

Stir in sprouts and soy sauce.  Simmer covered 10 to 15 minutes until hot.  If too dry, add 2 tbsp butter.  Serves 8.
