I found myself with a handful of bok choy this week and I was stumped as to how to use it. It's not a typical green that I buy and honestly, I don't know if I have ever personally cooked it. I know I've eaten it, but cooked it, no.
But I did a bit of research and I came up with this easy and delicious fried rice recipe. It's a dish filled with vegetables, whole grains and a touch of protein from eggs. You can serve it as is or add some chicken on top. Give it a go!
