Bok Choy Stir Fry Recipe


This is my favorite stir fry , I have made in the past year or so. This is a very simple & easy stir fry in my opinion, I made enough for about 1-2 people depending on how much you eat.


Bok Choy Stir Fry:
  • 1 medium size Bok Choy, sliced greens leafs and chop the white stem about 1/2 cup
  • 1/4 cup of Shitiake Mushrooms , sliced
  • 1/4 cup of Broccoli
  • 1/4 cup of Green onion , chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons of white onion, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon of finely chopped ginger
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoon of finely chopped garlic
  • Almost 2 Tablespoons of Earth Balance Coconut Butter
  • A dash of red chili pepper flakes
  • A handful of pumpkin seeds (optional)
  • Wok 

I would get everything together before starting the stir fry which is what I did and it made it so much easier. Note: I used pre-chopped garlic & ginger for the recipe.
Place wok on the stove on a low setting , and add in 1 Tablespoon of the coconut butter into the wok; then add in the white parts of bok choy. Turn up the stove to high for about 2 minutes , then add in the onion , green onion, and Shitiake mushrooms cook for about 3 minutes or so. After the 3 minutes add in the remaining coconut butter , and broccoli; let the coconut butter melt once it's melted. Add in the garlic, ginger & red chili pepper flakes. Cook everything for about 2 minutes or so , make sure that your stirring everything while cooking. Add in the bok choy leafs & pumpkin seeds ; cook for about 5 minutes on high heat. 


Serve over your favorite type of rice, I used white rice for this recipe but anything will work.
Have you ever made a Bok Choy stir fry yourself?

Zombies or Snot

I know that the title isn't the best but hey what can you say when it's the first thing that comes to mind. I recently posted that I was out sick, and I was. It felt like I was a zombie just going through the motions of living but not being able to enjoy it. 


I had caught a stomach virus that was going around, in fact it was in the news. They went over on how to avoid it and prevent it from happening in your family. Which I think in my opinion they posted this a little too late, I lost about 30 dollar worth of groceries because they went bad by me being sick.


It's been almost a week and I am now starting to eat real food besides the B.R.A.T diet. Which most of us would know isn't that fun, it's very limited. I am glad to be able to eat miso soup and a salad with ginger dressing from Sushi Hana , it's now my favorite meal. 


It feels nice to be blogging again, but I know that this isn't a review of anything vegan nor vegan related. However while I was sick I got a couple cookbooks on one of the days I was feeling better, so I'll show those soon.


 Right now I am still not interested in food because I am not completely better,once I am my posts will be my regular schedule one's and even more home cooked food. I decided that's the only way to make sure that I don't get sick like this again. 


Any suggestion's for food that is flavorful but will work with a stomach virus?
