From the Test Kitchen

This quick-cooking spin on a Chinese-American favorite highlights a bevy of vegetables, including crisp bok choy and turnip (yours may be red or purple-topped). Chopped ginger added to the vegetables in the last few minutes of cooking lends aromatic spice, while a flavor-packed sauce brings the springy noodles and veggies together.
