As I mentioned in my last post, my niece and her husband are always up for trying anything I make. While they were visiting over the weekend, I made a stir fry with the bok choy and some of the onion in our box. I also used up some of the leftover vegetables in our refrigerator. Must have been pretty good-there were no leftovers!

I like doing a stir fry for company-you can chop all the ingredients in advance, and it cooks quickly when company arrives and it is close to time to eat.
Happy eating!
