Bok Choy & Apricot/Nectarine Salad

Nourish Restaurant in Sequim, WANourish, Sequim’s new garden-to-plate restaurant and gathering place, is featuring a series of meals created using items from Nash’s farm share boxes each week. In this recipe, our Walla Walla onions complement the nectarines or apricots (just in from eastern Washington!) to sweeten the salad, while the baby bok choy gives a great crunch.
