Vegetable Lo Mein Recipe 

I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love this vegetable lo mein recipe! I’ve been making a version of this veggie lo mein for years and it has yet to disappoint. It’s one of those reliable recipes that you actually look forward to making on busy weeknights.This vegetable lo mein recipe can hold its own against any veggie lo mein I’ve had from a restaurant. Dare I say that I even like it way more than the actual takeout version, which I usually find a little too heavy for my tastes.

This homemade version is bright, fresh, packed with veggies and is a beautiful and colorful meal that you’ll be proud to put on the table.I know it’s a vegetable lo mein recipe… and there are actually no lo mein noodles in sight. I used spaghetti instead since I figured almost everyone has that on-hand and is familiar with cooking spaghetti.

But if you want to whip up a more authentic version of this dish, just use your favorite lo mein noodles!
