Ham and Pineapple Fried Rice

I had a lot of left over rice from what I made for a team potluck. The best thing to do with leftover rice is to make fried rice. But what kind? I had leftover pineapple from last week's kale pineapple and peanut butter stew. Okay, so pineapple fried rice would be pretty delicious. I have done it before. But wait, why not make it even better by adding ham? Why didn't I think of this sooner?! Overall, I think this experiment was a success.

Ham + pineapple = awesome
