This product caught my eye on my last TJ trip. I've been really into stir fry lately, so this seemed like a nice way to get a quick meal with lots of veggies. I liked the variety of veggies, especially the inclusion of ones I don't usually get like bok choy, cabbage, and snow peas. I thought the soy ginger sauce was nice and had a little hint of spice that was very welcomed. The veggies were fresh but soba noodles came in a vacuumed sealed package that looked very unappealing. They said you can soak them in hot water, or microwave them in water. I tried the former first, but it didn't really work so I had to microwave them. It was a bit hard to get them apart at first, but once I was able to start breaking up the block I could get individual noodles out. I added some baked tofu to add some protein. I was very taken aback by the claim that there were seven servings in this bag. I got about three meals from this (which included the tofu). Without tofu I could see eating this in two meals easily. I'd recommend serving it as a side or with a protein like it did. A sprinkling of sesame seeds really helped complete the meal. This was around $5, which is a fine price to me for a meal kit. #soba #eatyourveggies #stirfry #broccoli #eatyourgreens #noodles #lazyvegan #tofu #ginger #cabbage #bokchoy This review earned $0.70 in donation credits

This was pretty good, not great. I’d buy it again maybe. I really liked the dressing. I used my own noodles instead of the ones in this package.
Sometimes it’s nice to be able to eat with much thought. I’ve had a lot of Trader Joe’s’ salad kits before, but this was my first time branching out into one that needs to be heated. I was worried about breaking up the noodles for a split second, but it was much easier than it looked. I really liked the vegetable assortment and it came with just the right amount of sauce, though I wish there was a plant protein in there, too. Started cooking up some tofu simultaneously and it made a yummy, filling addition! #veganisnotscary
