Cooking Steps
Bring a medium pot (large pot for 4 servings) of water to a boil. Wash and dry produce.
Trim and and thinly slice mushrooms (skip if your mushrooms are pre-sliced!). Trim scallions; cut whites into 1-inch pieces and thinly slice greens. Peel and mince or grate ginger.
Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 5-7 minutes. Reserve ¼ cup noodle cooking water (½ cup for 4 servings); drain and set aside.
While noodles cook, in a small bowl, whisk together stock concentrate with ⅓ cup warm water (⅔ cup for 4). Add soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder, 3 TBSP sugar, and 2 tsp vinegar (6 TBSP sugar and 4 tsp vinegar for 4). (Be sure to measure the vinegar—we sent more!) Stir to combine.
Heat a large drizzle of oil in pot used for noodles over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and scallion whites. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are browned, 3-4 minutes.
Add carrots and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 1-2 minutes. Add ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.
Reduce heat under pot with veggies to medium. Add spinach, bok choy and napa cabbage, soy-garlic sauce, drained noodles, and reserved noodle cooking water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened, 1-2 minutes.
Divide lo mein between bowls. Sprinkle with scallion greens and serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
I commend you for the new recipe. However, a few things: 1. Do we really need 3 TB of sugar in the sauce? That seems like a lot. 2. I think it would be fresher and tastier if we were just given whole bok choy instead of pre-cut. 3. The noodles fell apart in the water. They did not appear to be broken. Could have been a bad batch? This has happened a little before with this type of noodle but not to this extreme.
Soooo tasty! I added a bit of bacon and some crushed red pepper for zip. The whole family loved the lo mein.
We used 1/2 the ginger. The directions are opposite the pictures for the whites and greens of scallions. We just thinly sliced both.
This recipe made plenty for the 2 of us, but it needed more flavor. I didn't get enough umami. Maybe onions and hoisin sauce for more of an Asian taste
I omitted the sugar but otherwise followed recipe and we enjoyed it. We had tilapia with it for the protein. I would make this again.
Love a one-pot meal, topped with sriracha for a kick
Very tasty but could use less sugar maybe? A lot of the noodles on here are too sweet
It was really good but a bit bland so I added Sriracha and it was a lot better.
This was full of flavor and lots of good vegetables. Yum!
This was delicious, but I felt the sauce was a little too watery/liquidy, and would've benefited from thickening up.
