Stir Fired Baby Bok Choy*
 
 
When baby bok choy is fresh in the produce section, grab it! Otherwise, it is available most of the year at Asian markets. Bok Choy is loaded with sulforphane, an enzyme that protects against cancer. It is also very high in vitamins A and C. A Chinese classic, this staple vegetable dish is a very simple stir fry that highlights the natural flavor and texture of the bok choy.
