Sesame-Ginger Bok Choy

If I'd been thinking clearly, I would've cooked up some bok choy to go with last night's cashew tofu. I was not very awake yesterday though, so I didn't think of it 'til dinner was just about to be served. I did up the bok choy this morning so that it could be served with the leftovers for lunch today. I think it makes a nice combo. Especially since the tofu is decidedly lacking in the vegetable department.
