Bacon Pineapple Fried Rice

I randomly decided I wanted to try to make fried rice for the first time.  I read a bunch of different recipes, looked to see what I had on hand, and threw something together.  This is another one of those recipes where my measurements weren't precise.

1 1/2 cups uncooked rice
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion
1 can of pineapple chunks
3 eggs
6 slices of bacon, cooked and chopped up
1/2 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
salt and pepper to taste

Cook rice ahead of time and refrigerate until needed.  Heat oil in a large skillet or wok, add onions and pineapple and cook on high until they start to brown around the edges.  Whisk eggs, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.  Add eggs to pan, stir until eggs are completely cooked.  Add bacon, peas, and rice.  Break up any clumps of rice.  Stir frequently until everything is hot.  Adjust seasonings and eat!
