Recipe – Bok Choy

Next Steps
Now that you know how to cook these 2 dishes you can do any number of things with them.
Cook shanghai noodles as noted above and serve as a side dish or first cook chicken, pork, beef or shrimp and add noodles and veggies to make a stir-fry.
Bok choy can be served as above for a side dish, or added to a stir-fry as well. I love serving shanghai noodles and bok choy together.

looks like a great side dish! I love serving stir fry’s over cooked chow mein noodles normally – I haven’t tried bok choy before
Mmmm, that is yummy! Is it weird that I leave my stir-fry on til it almost burns? My portion only but, I like the noodles crispy! 🙂
