Soba noodles and edamame give this dish a Japanese flair, but the peanut sauce and cilantro are common in Thai cooking.

- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 Tbsp. grated fresh ginger (or 1/8 tsp. dried ground ginger)

- Non-stick spray
- 4 cups shredded cabbage
- 2 cups shredded carrots
- 1 cup edamame, shelled and thawed
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and uncooked
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, optional
