Well this isn't the best way to kick off the return of Sunday Suppers because I forgot to take a photo, but it was good and I want a record of what I did so I can make it again sometime soon so...
But first, a little backstory. You know how I like to make a short story long. 😊
Last year, I decided to get healthy, or at least eat super healthy. Well, super healthy compared to the way I'd been eating. I sort of became one of those annoying people who talk about calories and fat grams and the number of carbs in foods. I was annoying, but felt great! Then I went to the doctor for my six month blood work and all my numbers came back even worse. I pretty much said "'ef it" and went back to eating ice cream and potato chips.
While my tastebuds may love chips and ice cream, my body doesn't. I can tell a difference in how I feel, and even how my brain doesn't function as well on all the salt and sugar. So screw the bloodwork numbers. I'm going to eat what physically makes me feel good. I'm back to eating healthy foods. Healthy foods plus a little more bread than I should probably have. Whatever.
Anyway, I'm trying to incorporate more vegetables into my diet. And I recently discovered bok choy. I think in my two years cashiering at the grocery store, only three people have bought it, but one of those three was going on about how versatile it is and how good it is for you so... I've been experimenting with bok choy recipes.
My newest creation I'm calling Spicy Bok Choy. I thought it was delicious, and super simple.
Spicy Bok Choy
2 large carrots
1 large bunch of bok choy
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tbsp olive oil
I'd never cooked with Chorizo before but yum! It's another one of those things I kept seeing people buy, but I'd never tried. I think I'll be adding it to a lot of dishes in the future.
