Bok Choy Salad

This recipe was shared with me in March 2015 by the folks who own Sower N Seed in Minocqua, WI. It is delicious. I love the crispy topping. I served this with thin pork chops that I cooked on the grill with a little BBQ sauce, yum!

Bok Choy Salad

1/2 cup butter, coconut oil or combo
1 Tablespoon sugar
2 pkg Ramen Noodles (don't use seasoning packet) (cook the Ramen Nooodles 1st. This may be obvious to everyone, but I had never prepared them before trying this recipe, silly girl.)
1/3 cup sesame seeds
2/3 cup sliced almonds

Saute together in fry pan til almonds and noodles are nicely brown.  This is the crispy topping

Chop 2 heads Bok Choy (I wasn't sure how much of the Bok Choy green part to use)
Thin slice 5 green onions (may substitute other onions - red are pretty)

Toss together for your greens base

3/4 cup olive oil (may use other salad oil)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 Tablespoons to 1/2 cup sugar depending on how sweet you like it.  A reduced amount of maple syrup is good too or combo of sugar and stevia
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
Whisk together for dressing

(Note: I only used a little of this to dress the greens.)
