Stir Fried Shrimp with Vegetables

 Pam (South Carolina) says:
Had a nice flavor, but I messed up and over cooked my veggies. Ginger was over powering. I used broccoli instead of cauliflower, and added water chestnutts and tiny corn on the cob. All veggies were overcooked, (my fault) except the bok choy. Next time, I'll add it first. I will make this again.

Enjoyed it! The sauce was a nice blend of the ingredients - nothing was over powering, but my vegetables were overcooked, which was probably my fault. I added broccoli and, next time, will also add water chestnuts for texture.

This seemed to be a bit small for four servings. I would make it at least 1 1/2 the amounts for four. The flavor was good and we used some Asian sauces for those who like more spice. I'd suggest cooking the shrimp and the vegetables less time if you like the veggies crisp like we do!
