This tasty Vegetable Lo Mein is the tastiest!  If you love lo mein like us, you'll find this amazing dish is not as complicated like you might think.  In fact, it's so quick and easy, you'll bring everything together in one pan in something like 15 minutes, from start to finish!  Yes Please!!

This Quick & Easy Vegetable Lo Mein is vegan, healthy and loaded with veggies and it's super delish!  It can be served as a main dish or as a side dish. Lo mein is a very popular Asian take-out food, but you can make the same thing at home with whatever veggies you have on hand and keep in mind, it will be a lot faster than waiting for it to come to your house for delivery or going out to pick it up. It tastes way better and you know exactly what is going into it which is very important, plus you can spice it up if you want with some sriracha or some red pepper flakes if you're one of those people that like it on a hot "5" on a scale from 1 to 5!

We used brussel sprouts, broccoli and carrots and stir fried them up for 2 minutes.  The key to making the veggies taste so amazing is to let them steam just a bit with a couple tablespoons of water after you have stir fried them for another 2 minutes to soften them up just a tad. Then add this really easy soy sauce recipe and toss those noodles with the veggies to get the tastiest Lo Mein in a matter of minutes!  Voila!  Success and yumminess! When using soy sauce, we like using the low sodium and I swear we can't tell the difference and you won't need to add salt to the recipe because of the soy sauce.

As for the noodles, you can use just about any eggless noodles. We used Soba noodles, made of buckwheat flour and wheat flour, giving them a hearty, nutty flavor. They contain all eight essential amino acids, along with antioxidants and other nutrients (source).  But other noodles you could use, would be lo mein noodles, ramen, vermicelli or spaghetti. MAKE IT GLUTEN FREE: If you are sensitive to gluten, seek out 100% buckwheat soba noodles, rice noodles or substitute your favorite gluten-free spaghetti. Use whatever veggies you have in your fridge.  Mushrooms, sugar snap peas, bok choy, cabbage, peppers, spinach, onions, green scallions and edamame are just some of the more popular veggies you can use.

Tips for cooking noodles: In order to avoid the gummy quality, do not salt the water before cooking to keep them sticking and rinse the noodles immediately after straining them. After pouring the noodles into a colander, transfer them to a bowl of cold water and whirl them around. Or simply rinse them under running water. Keep them moving in or under water for a minute or so to remove the excess starch that creates that gummy texture.
