Easy Steamed Bok Choy Salad ♥ Recipe

Easy Steamed Bok Choy Salad, steamed in the microwave or in a steamer.
Today's quick and easy recipe for Asian greens: A fast make-ahead and easy-to-carry salad using the healthy but "accessible" (aka easy to enjoy) Asian green called bok choy (or some times pak-choi or Chinese cabbage). Weight Watchers Friendly. WW 1 or 2 PointsPlus. Low Cal. Low Carb. Gluten Free (with GF soy sauce). Not just vegan, "Vegan Done Real".

My friend Naam [rhymes with "tom"] is a-naam-azing. We've been friends for less than a year but oh! it's nice to make a new friend! In our first email exchange last year, she invited me and 25 other St. Louis food bloggers to lunch – not out to lunch, mind you, but to lunch in her home. Turns out, lunch is Naam's "thing" and quite often, she'll invite a friend or two for a sit-down, multi-course light lunch. It's about friendship, about conversation, about connection.

Naam is Thai and both times I've been for lunch, she's served Asian food. On Tuesday, three of us sat down to a Japanese lunch. Twas lovely: a mushroom soup in a deep-dark broth, miso salmon, rice and this Easy Steamed Bok Choy Salad. After I'd gobbled down the small plate of salad before touching either the salmon or rice, Naam chided with a smile, "The idea is to eat them together!" Well, so okay, that's me. Without even thinking, I always-always-always taste the vegetables first. But Naam's bok choy was so simple and delicious, I just didn't stop!

Home again, I've already made the Easy Steamed Bok Choy Salad twice. Apparently I'm still not ready to stop! I hope you like it half as much!
