Beef Bok Choy Stir Fry
Save your money and don't order take out! Make this dish and you'll be more than satisfied. It tastes amazing plus you are eating better because there isn't any msg:) I have been on a quinoa kick and I made this stir fry and poured it over quinoa. But make rice or any other grain you love and it'll go great, too.
Also, this recipe calls for jalopenos but if you have a bad stomach or if you have kids that won't be able to handle that type of heat - take it out! Don't want to commit to jalopenos but still want a kick? Sprinkle some red pepper flakes into the stir fry when everything is cooking in the pan. Make it your own. You can't go wrong with this recipe!
Enjoy!
