Servings: persons

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

1
Prepare peanut sauce by whisking the first 7 ingredients together (or putting in a jar and shaking).

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 saute just until the greens wilt.

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.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
