     I was out of sesame oil. But this was SO good even without it. I had two servings... but for such few calories my diet bank could afford it. Can't wait to try it with the sesame oil. - 5/9/09

     I made this for dinner tonight, and it was excellent! I used tamari instead of low-sodium soy sauce, but still had to add an additional Tbsp for my taste. I also added a few dashes of chili powder for a little extra kick. I will be making this regularly from now on, it was fantastic!!! Thanks! - 1/16/09

     I enjoyed this recipe. First time I have cooked Bok Choy. I might add a little more soy sauce & sesame seed oil. Also, want to try adding some toasted sesame seeds. - 6/1/14

     Just made this recipe. I threw in some pea pods (just cause I had them laying around) and a big pinch of red pepper flakes for some kick. I'm a vegetarian, so i just served this over some quinoa for my supper. It was delicious and definitely a keeper! - 7/30/12
