Quick & Easy Vegetable Lo Mein (Ready in 15 Minutes)
Noodles are my jam.
I could seriously eat some form of noodles every day of my life and never get tired of them!
These veggie lo mein noodles are quick and healthy — plus this is such a bright and vibrant dish! It truly is a joy for ALL the senses!
Ready from start-to-finish in about 15 minutes (can’t beat that!) this easy lo mein dish is the perfect weeknight dinner. It’s vegetarian as is, but you can easily add your favorite protein (suggestions below) to bulk it up a little. (My husband, for example, is not satisfied unless he gets a certain amount of protein every day).
There is a little sriracha in the recipe, but it’s not enough to make the dish spicy. Feel free to adjust to your preferences – whether you want it to be 100% mild for the kids (omit altogether) or pack a little punch (double or triple the amount).
Aside from being super fast to prepare, versatility is the other reason I love this veggie lo mein recipe! It’s a full meal on it’s own, or your can tinker with it to make the dish a little different every time.
Enjoy!
