I wanted a spicy shrimp lo mein with a citrus twist. This is what I came up with. You can vary the vegetables. Use more or less of what you like or add something different. Tonight I had fresh green beans so I added about 1/4 cup of those to the mix. This would also be good with chicken instead of shrimp.
