Bok Choy, Black Rice, and Ginger Stir Fry

Bok Choy, Black Rice, and Ginger Stir Fry-2

Serve this simple recipe with baked salmon or baked chicken breasts. The key to a good stir-fry is to use cold or room temperature cooked rice. I usually make this recipe with whatever leftover rice we have, but black rice is my favorite! Black rice is high in antioxidants called anthocyanins; these are also found in black beans, purple cauliflower, blueberries, black currants—basically any plant food with a dark blackish-purple or blue color.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons avocado oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
1 bunches green onions cut into 2-inch pieces
4 small carrots sliced into thin diagonals
8 cups chopped bok choy
½ teaspoons sea salt
4 cups cooked black rice
2 teaspoons coconut vinegar
½ cups pumpkin seeds toasted

This is just plain delicious! Love the black rice flavor, the crunch of the toasted pumpkin seeds and the mix of vegetables! For me this is a great make-ahead recipe for lunches, keeping the pumpkin seeds separate to maintain their crunch.

It was very good, I just don’t know that it is worth the expense of the black rice.

Black rice is expensive but I love to have it for an occasional splurge…it jives with my energies ; ) This recipe was simple and delicious.

I didn't have black rice, and trying to be low carb, so simply left it out and added more carrots. I used Coconut Aminos instead of Coconut Vinegar as I can't find it anywhere. Didn't have pumpkin seeds either. Still...even with those modifications this was an amazing recipe.
