BABY BOK CHOY AND COCONUT CORN

© 2024 Wicked Foods Inc. All rights reserved.

Today we’re creating a dish packed with bok choy and corn, which is spiked with Thai flavors like coconut, ginger, lime and chili peppers to create a fresh and satisfying meal that’s ready in 30 minutes!

We believe that food has the ability to nourish both body and soul, and this dish is a perfect example of that! You can use fresh or frozen corn for this recipe; although, given that it’s winter, if you want to make this now, you’ll likely be buying it from the frozen section. You may ask, is frozen produce as nutritious as fresh produce? Sure! Although we definitely prefer buying our produce fresh, frozen is the next best thing if what you are looking for is not in season.
