How have you been doing? Do you have nice and sunshiny weather where you live?
Here, we are still waiting for a real Spring... I haven't started gardening yet. Too cold, too wet. Very depressing. My tulips didn't grow past 15cm in height and lots of flowers are dead. I've said this before but I want to move! Somewhere warm!
In any case, I feel kind of pathetic for not taking better care of my blog and I've decided, again, to go by a different format. I'm not too interested in showing pictures after pictures of everything dish I have made, although that is nice too. But I've done that and I need a change. So I want to try posting more recipes. Here is the first one of this "new era" ;-)
This Apple Bok Choy Salad recipe was not vegan when my mom came across it and so she proceeded to make it better, meaning, she veganized it. It is very simple and very, very fantastic with its crunchiness and freshness and all around goodness. I could eat the whole bowl by myself. Be prepare to read that often here :p
Try it soon and tell me about it!

Gaia's Mommy

So refreshing, I've never had apples in a slaw type of salad, let alone bok choy.
Wholly crap! Apples and Bok Choy? I never would have thought of that. That is awesome!

This looks delish. It's definitely something I want to try in the near future. Thanks for posting!
yummy, that looks so refreshing! I just started using celery seed in my slaw-type salads and I really love it.
I like this new era! :) The recipe looks great! Celery salt? YUM!
I never thought BOK CHOY and APPLE can get this perfect. I tried the recipe the other day and I think it has the right combination.
Will cook this out..later tonight! I heard good reviews bout this recipe. :)
Just tried this and cannot believe I waited 39 years to try bok choy in something besides your typical asian cuisine! Thank you so much for this recipe. It is delicious!!
Hi - Rad vegan site! I'm planning to feature it on a VegVine.com browser bar for vegetarians. We are a group of vegan volunteers connecting people with veg resources like yours. Our goal is a world with greater compassion. It seems like we share that. If you can squeeze it into your schedule I'd love to chat.

My family loved this recipe. My husband who thought he hated slaw liked it and my 10 year old son had 3 servings. I used maple syrup in place of the sugar and reduced the vinegar to 2 teaspoons. I tried it with the 2 tablespoons and the dressing was like water (maybe this is a typo?). Anyways, thanks for the yummy and quick recipe!
I'm making this for a potluck right now! I used maple syrup instead of agave and added a tiny bit of grainy mustard. It's pretty divine. Thanks!
what is veganaise ? vegan form of mayo? where can I get it ??
Hi Deepa,
Yes, Vegenaise is exactly that, vegan mayo and it's, in my sincere opinion, the best!
Depending on where you live, you can find it in "health food stores", or even online
