Looking for a super quick meal? Look no further than sesame noodles with bok choi. Nothing needs cooking except the pasta. Throw all the dressing ingredients into a blender, you don’t even need to mince the garlic! Then toss with roughly chopped bok choi and other seasonal veggies along with warm pasta and dinner is done. There is an allergy warning to the recipe as it contains both peanuts and sesame.

You can substitute any veggies that are in season, but if using tougher produce, like kale or carrots, then I recommend a brief sauté before adding noodles and sauce.
