I don't think this is copyrighted. They sent it out to me on an email subscription.

It's very tasty but the carbs are very low. The first time I fixed it, I ate both helpings as dinner and was surprised when I went dangerously low on BS two hours later. Now I have a little bread or carby vegetable with it.


INGREDIENTS -
1 tablespoon sesame oil -
1 clove garlic, crushed -
8 ounces pork tenderloin, thinly sliced -
1 cup sliced shiitake or other mushrooms -
1-1/2 cups sliced bok choy, with leaves -
4 ounces (1/2 8-ounce can) water chestnuts, drained -
1 tablespoon lite soy sauce
DIRECTIONS
Heat oil in large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and stir-fry garlic 1 minute.
Add pork, stirring constantly, and stir-fry 3-5 minutes.
Add mushrooms and stir-fry for 1 minute.
Add bok choy and water chestnuts and stir-fry 2-3 minutes.
Add soy sauce and toss to coat.

Red or Yellow julienned bell peppers really fancy this dish up.
