I am really into bok choy right now. It's a crispy and nutritious addition to any skillet or stir fry and it takes on the flavor of the dish like an absolute champion. It's also really easy to grow. I grew the bok choy I used in this recipe in a vertical pallet planter and by 'I grew it' I mean I planted it, watered it anytime it hadn't rained in a few days, and mother nature took care of the rest.
Seriously easy to grow. Seriously easy to cook. Majorly easy to nom.
That's bok choy.
Whip together this skillet and munch it on its own, over quinoa if that's how you paleo, or like we did, in lettuce wraps. Any way you do it is amazing. Serves 2-3 without quinoa or 4 with it.
Ingredients:
1 lb pork, humanely raised and free range for preference
3 cloves of garlic, smashed
2 heads of bok choy
1/2 lb scallions
1 head of buttercrunch lettuce, romaine could also work
β1 1/2 Tbsp Avocado Oil
1 - 1 1/2 Tbsp Turmeric
β1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp sea salt

You can add chili oil or red pepper sauce to make this skillet zippier, or ginger to add to the turmeric to turn up the tremendous healing properties of this flavorful dish. Turmeric, especially when combined with black pepper is a fantastic anti-inflammatory
