Love, love, love Lo Mein ! Thanks for sharing this one!


Love lo mein its a great recipe thanks


This is my 17 year olds fav at the chinese restuarant! I told her I would make it one day...so I'll try this one!


Made this for lunch today, and it was very yummy. I didn't have the sweet chili paste or sherry, so I won't rate it yet, because I'll make it again with those ingredients added. Also I just tossed in what veggies I had on hand, so I didn't have the full veggie list in your recipe. My 2 year old went crazy eating it. I had to dish him up more noodles 3 times. That is an rare to non-existant occurrence with him. Take it as an extreme compliment!! Thanks for the recipe, and we'll be making it again.
