This stir fry uses simple ingredients for an easy and delicious from scratch meal that your family will love. I wasn’t super familiar with cooking bok choy, but after an amazing new friend gifted us with an abundance from her garden, I was excited to experiment with this new ingredient and what I had in the fridge and pantry to create a new dish. Our family loved it so much that we’ll definitely have to start growing our own bok choy next spring!
