Stir Fry Vegetable Lo Mein

Even if you aren’t a vegetarian you’re going to love this Stir Fry Vegetable Lo Mein!

Sometimes I go through phases where I want to eat little to no meat. I’m sort of going through one of those phases right now. Poultry and seafood are ok this time but red meat and pork are something I just don’t want right now. Now that could all change the minute a juicy burger is put in front of me but for now, the meals I cook at home are either vegetarian or full of chicken or seafood.

I’m quite the sucker for Chinese food. Lo Mein, steamed dumplings (yes, I’d probably jump all over some pork steamed dumplings if they were in front of me too) vegetable fried rice, chicken with broccoli and crab rangoon are some of my favorite Americanized Chinese dishes. Chinese food is pretty simple to make. I’ve made quite a few Chinese dishes ranging from fried rice to crab rangoon. And you can too!
