Bok Choy Apple Slaw

You know, I think my little hiatus sparked and new-found interest in creating great tasting and healthy recipes.  This recipes would be a great addition to the Mongolian Beef recipe I featured yesterday.

Today was also a first for me.  I tried Pho!  It was so yummy.  I don’t know about WW PP for Pho.  If anyone does, let me know.  I order the Pho Ga Tom.  It was chicken and shrimp rice noodle soup

I found this twist on the traditional cole slaw and had to give it a try.

Bok Choy serves as a peppery alternative to cabbage in this crunchy and creamy slaw.

I absolutely LOVED this dish.  I mean, like pull me away from the table love!  Who knew?  Bok Choy as a slaw.  But the funny part as I end this blog, the hubby gets home from work, see me eating the slaw and here was the dialogue

HUBBY: “It looks like your eating something there”.

ME: Why, yes, I am!

HUBBY:  It looks, um, well, healthy!

ME:  Why, yesit  is.  Does that mean you don’t’ want any?

HUBBY:  Why yes, it does!

Enjoy your evening!
