Bok Choy Gratin

I had a bunch of baby bok choy in my fridge that needed to get used before making its way to the trash can.  I grew up in a household that didn’t believe in wasting food and it pains me to throw food out.  I would rather create a disaster
meal then throw food away.  This is how I created this dish and it actually turned out quite tasty. 

INGREDIENTS

1 Sliced Yellow Onion

1 Diced Tomato

10 Chopped Garlic Cloves

8 Ounces Unsalted Butter

6 Small Bunches Baby Bok Choy

1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt

1 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper

1 Cup Panko Bread Crumbs

1 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

Preheat your oven to 350° F.  Tear off the bok choy leaves, wash & dry them.  In a large skillet melt the butter over a medium low heat.  When the butter is melted add the garlic and onions.  Stir and cook for 1 minute.  Add the tomatoes and bok choy leaves. Season with the salt and pepper.  Stir and cook for 2 minutes.  Remove from the heat and pour into a large glass baking dish.  In a small bowl mix together the panko bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.  Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture over the vegetables. Place, uncovered into the oven and bake for 35 minutes until done.  Remove from the oven and serve hot.  Serves 4

Very nice. I might make one change though politely speaking. I am not a Garlic fan really. I would probably shred fresh ginger???

Glen, I'm not a fan of garlic either. I'd try cutting the quantity of garlic in half and adding a little ginger

Glen, I don't like garlic either. Speaking of food, any insight into the "Gelato and Ice Cream diferences" question?
Victoria Hart Glavin June 15, 2012 at 10:28 am
If one is not a garlic fan then cut down the amount that the recipe calls for or replace it. You certainly could use fresh ginger instead for this recipe. In other recipes you can replace garlic with chopped shallots or just leave the garlic out all together.

Morning all. Kenneth: Gelato is italian ice cream...I THINK..not sure. Not sure if it is made w/real cream or not. I only eat real ice cream as I will worry about cholesteral and being healthy when I am 80 MAYBE...if I am still around.
Yea, maybe ONE SMALL clove garlic. But, I do Love the idea of Ginger.

Why is it the panel for this event does not include a single advocate for gun-owners' rights? WithRead More all due respect to Chief McNamara, why does the panel no include a person who can speak to gun safety from a gun-owning civilian's perspective? ML, you claim that the assembled folks "do not offer judgements about gun ownership" but they are not including a single voice that can offer perspective on gun ownership. I have been to "education" sessions sponsored by Meg's March for Change and they are one-sided indoctrinations into gun control advocacy. >>>> I was in Hartford for the public hearings in January when both Meg and March co-founder Nancy gave their personal testimonies and they all but threatened the legislators on the panel with election day retribution for all those who did not tow the gun-control line of thinking (i.e. March and CAGV). To suggest that Meg "does not offer judgements" if fallacious at best, disingenuous at worst.

I guess people can organize discussions with agenda as they see fit? Just checked some NRARead More sponsored meetings and this was the sample of speakers:attendees joined in honoring Friends of NRA Volunteers of the Year from across with country. Attendees also listened to speakers from the event's sponsors Cabela's, U.S. Law Shield and Universal Coin and Bullion. Former NRA President David Keene encouraged NRA members to stand and fight for their American freedoms, and R. Lee Ermy "The Gunny" reinforced the message by surprising guests and autographing a Glock pistol for one winner. Now unless "the gunny" was the invited person who spoke on behalf of gun control, I cant find the parrallel you demand be accomodated for this groups agenda.

Sorry Elmcrest! We don't like the spam either! As Lisa said, our engineers are working hard toRead More prevent those spammers from attacking our 900+ sites across the country.

Yup, "US Open Golf" is doing it right now, posting a new blog every 2 minutes.

US Representative Larson is now on board, which leaves Rep. DeLauro and Senator Murphy. Neither ofRead More their staffers are forthcoming about why they have not co-sponsored. Please call their DC offices and urge them to stop up. Murphy has supposedly received only 40 calls on the subject.

Unknown to most parents, children’s data is being shared beyond the school district with sixRead More agencies inside the Utah Data Alliance and UTREX, according to Utah Technology Director John Brandt. The student data is further being “mashed” with federal databases, according to federal Education Dept. Chief of Staff Joanne Weiss: http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/inside-school-research/2012/07/ed_urges_states_to_make_data_s.html While John Brandt assures us that only a handful of people in Utah have access to the personally identifiable data of children, recent alterations to federal FERPA (Famly Education Rights Privacy Act) regulations which were made by the U.S. Dept of Education, have radically redefined terms and widened the window of groups who can access private data without parental consent. For more on that, see the lawsuit against the U.S. Dept of Education on the subject: http://epic.org/apa/ferpa/default.html But first, an interjection: I want to introduce this article: http://seattleducation2010.wordpress.com/2013/01/02/your-students-privacy/ I like this article because it exposes the facts plainly, that parents are unaware that their children’s information is being shared without parental permission, beyond the school, beyond the district, and even beyond the state. It is verifiable and true. What it means: Courses taken, grades earned, every demographic piece of information, including family names and income, is being watched by the U.S. government via schools. Verify for yourself: The U.S. Dept. of Education’s own explanation is here, showing why SLDS systems exist: http://www2.ed.gov/programs/slds/factsheet.html

Why does ANY of this surprise you? You can take the man out of Chicago... Where is the outrageRead More across the land? Why do we sheepishly respond to these multiple malfeasances? Obama will stay in office and do what he wants until 2016 for one reason. Two words. President Biden.

I have and always will respect whoever our Pres was/is and will be. Is one person over the otherRead More really going to change my life?? NOPE. I am still going to be spinning my wheels in poverty. As for IRS> I think IRS should be closed too. Nobody wants to pay taxes. Why can't the Govt just print more money Problem solved!! Also, USA needs to stop wasting money overseas and take care of our own...like my bail out
