How to Make Veggie Lo Mein
Start by cooking your lo mein noodles according to the package directions. While they are cooking, prep the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients. Lo mein comes together quickly so it’s important to have all your elements ready to go.
Heat up a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil. Once hot, add broccoli and carrots then saute for 2 to 3 minutes, until slightly softened.
Add garlic, shredded cabbage and noodles to the wok. Stir around then drizzle in the sauce. Toss well to coat and cook another minute, allowing the cabbage to soften a bit and the sauce to thicken.
Great Option
This dish is a great option for a quick weeknight meal. It will only take you about 15 minutes to make, not counting the time to get the water boiling.
It also reheats well so it’s great for meal prepping or school lunches.
