They want you to thaw the noodles with some oil in a pan. Meanwhile, you thaw the ginger sauce and shrimp in water. Then you throw all of it together in the pan and heat until the shrimp is fully cooked to an internal temp of 145° or more. I can smell the ginger already.
Well, looks like it's time to plate it up and chow down.
We tried the lo mein with no condiments first but quickly decided it needed some help. Sonia reached for gochujang and I went with sriracha. Both sauces greatly improved the taste by giving the dish a little kick, which was offset and dampened by the mellow ginger flavor.
Sonia thought there were plenty of shrimp, but I wouldn't have minded more. We both thought a few more veggies would have been welcome. The noodles were fine and the whole dish had a decent flavor, particularly after adding some heat.

Found in the frozen section. Probably would buy again. We give Trader Joe's Ginger Shrimp Lo Mein seven and a half out of ten stars.
Bottom line: 7.5 out of 10.
