You'll never what you will create when you use leftovers in the frig! This recipe is quick, easy, and very healthy. Bok Choy is a member of the cruciferous family of veggies, and contains Vitamin C and Beta-Carotene anti-oxident. It contains folate which has a role in the production and repair of DNA . Also contains selenium and is chock full of fiber.

  • 1/2 head baby Bok Choy (slice and dice the greens, too)
  • 8 oz button or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2-3 green onions (scallions)
  • 2 large garlic cloves
  • wedge of frozen ginger (about 1/2 inch size)
  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa
  • Braggs Liquid Aminos to taste

Method:

  • Quinoa cooks quickly. Take 1/2 cup uncooked quinoa, rinse well in fine sieve, and then add to pot with 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes. When water is absorbed, quinoa is done!
  • In small stir fry pan or non-stick skillet, add 2-3 T water or veggie broth and saute the scallions till soft. Add the Bok Choy and mushrooms. Add a bit of Braggs Liquid Aminos so ingredients won't burn or stick to pan. 
  • While sauteing, use a microplane or grater to grate the garlic and ginger over the veggies. 
  • When warm, add the cooked quinoa, and add more seasoning to taste.

I've also added baby spinach to the saute. You can add other greens of your choice.
