Sauteed Bok Choy with Grainy Mustard and Mayo
Serves 4

This is a quick,easy, and delicious side dish that pairs best with poached or broiled fish or chicken, and takes less than 10-15 minutes of preparation and cooking time. Best served over steamed rice. Keeps well in the fridge and equally yummy as leftover goody for the next day's lunch.

2 lbs or approx 2 large bunches bok choy, washed and rinsed, stem end removed
2 Tbs sesame oil
1 Tbs olive or vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced thinly
1 tsp grainy Dijon mustard
2 Tbs sliced almonds
1Tbs low fat mayonnaise
sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste

Heat shallow pan and add sesame and olive or vegetable oil. Saute garlic until fragrant and slightly caramel in color. Do not brown or toast the garlic, unless you have a devilish craving for bitter food. Add the bok choy leaves and cover pan. Cook the bok choy until wilted, but still bright green in color. Add the grainy Dijon mustard and low fat mayonnaise and toss until thoroughly mixed. Toss in the almond. Mix thoroughly. Transfer to serving dish and while warm.
