Ingredients:

• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced
• 8 cups bok choy, chopped
• 2 Tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce ( I used less)
• salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add garlic and ginger and cook 1 minute.
   
   Note: I used a cast-iron skillet and it was less time.
3. Add bok choy and soy sauce cook 3 to 5 minutes, until greens are wilted and stalks are crisp-tender.
4. Add salt and pepper to your taste at the end.

Ingredients:

Dressing

• 2 Tbsp. sugar or Splenda
• 3 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
• 3 Tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
• 2 tsp. peanut butter
• 1/2 tsp. curry powder
• 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper

Salad

• 1 (3 oz.) pkg. ramen noodles
• 1/4 cup unsalted dry roasted peanuts
• 3 cup thinly sliced bok choy
• 1 cup very thin red bell pepper strips
• 1/2 cup shredded carrot
• 1/4 cup diagonally cut green onions

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine all of the dressing ingredients, with a whisk to mix well.

To prepare the salad, crumble the ramen noodles, discarding the seasoning packet. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add peanuts, saute for 4 minutes or until browned. Remove from heat. Combine ramen noodles, peanuts, bok choy and rest of ingredients in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad. Toss gently to coat. Serve immediately. Makes: 10- 1/2 cup servings.
