  • 1 lb head bok choy
  • 1 lb extra lean ground beef

1. Separate the leaves of the bok choy and wash them well. Cut the stalk part from each leaf, keep the leaves and stalks in separate piles. Chop leaves into strips or large pieces.

3. When the onions are almost translucent, add in the bok choy stalks and cook until they are almost tender.

4. Add in the broth and soy sauce and bring to a boil.

5. Stir in the chopped bok choy leaves and cook until heated through.
