Bell Pepper and Bok Choy Stir-Fry

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cut 1 or 2 bell peppers (any color) into long, narrow strips. In a stir-fry pan or large skillet, heat light olive oil with a little soy sauce. Stir-fry the peppers together with 4 to 6 good-sized stalks of sliced bok choy, with greens, over medium-high heat for 3 minutes or so. To vary this recipe, add a cup or so of sliced mushrooms or a handful of chopped cashews.
