• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1⁄2 lb whole wheat spaghetti
• 1 tablespoon canola oil or 1 tablespoon peanut oil
• 3 -4 garlic cloves
• 1 medium onion
• 1 carrot
• 2 heads baby bok choy
• 1⁄3 cup creamy peanut butter

directions

1. Prepare peanut sauce by whisking the first 7 ingredients together (or putting in a jar and shaking).
2. Put the pasta on to boil.
3. While pasta is cooking, chop your veggies. I prefer them kind of matchstick or julienned.
4. Heat the oil in a large skillet.
5. Saute onion and garlic. Be careful not to burn them!
6. Add bok choy and carrots to the pan and sauté just until the greens wilt.
7. Drain the pasta and add it to the pan. Toss with the veggies.
8. Pour the peanut sauce over everything and carefully toss.
9. Eat hot or at room temperature.
10. If you want to get fancy, garnish with chopped peanuts, cilantro, or sesame seeds.
