I must say, I absolutely LOVE when my mom comes to visit! My mom is so creative when it comes to cooking, she is always making me new dishes! Today she whipped up a delicious Lentil, Spinach and Bok Choy Stir Fry full of flavor. This dish is vegetarian or you can add protein like chicken/fish as desired. I decided to saute two chicken breast (diced) in olive and spices. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 Cup Lentils (dry, uncooked)
2 Cups Baby Spinach
3 Stems Baby Bok Choy (remove stems and slice in half)
1/2 White Onion (chopped)
2 Garlic Cloves (chopped)
1 Package Uncle Ben's Cooked Long Grain Rice & Wild Rice
1Tsp Cumin
1 Tsp Coriander
1 Tsp Cinnamon
1/4 Cup Golden Raisins
Vegetable Broth (optional, as needed)

DIRECTIONS:
1.  Fill sauce pan 1/2 full with water add Lentils, bring to a slow boil and cook for 4-5 minutes.

2.  In a 10-12 inch skillet, saute onion and garlic in 2 tsp of olive oil for 2 minutes or onion is translucent. Add Spinach and Bok Choy, cook on low/med heat for 5 minutes (stirring occasionally).

3.  Sir in cooked Lentils and Rice to mixture. Add Cumin and Coriander. At this point you may add vegetable broth if desired for flavor. Cover and cook on low/med heat for 10 minutes. Make sure there is enough moisture in pan at all times (water can be added as needed).

4.  Stir in Raisins and Cinnamon. Turn off heat and let stand for 15 minutes covered before serving.

Spinach! Those greens never fail - they're easy to prepare and yet very healthy. Nice recipe you've got there, it looks easy enough to try and seem delicious. A little protein will surely make it even tastier.
