Wonderful! I bet I've made this recipe 20 times in the last 2 years. Is great for leftovers; I crush up a few more peanuts than the recipe calls for, but that's it! This is such a great recipe!

My husband loves lo mein when we go out to eat and he says this is even better than at a restaurant! This is so easy to make, too. I've not tried it with pork but plan to in the future.

So I tweaked it just a bit, used fresh veggies, a little more sauce (both soy and dressing), used whole grain pasta, then I left out the peanut butter and the peanuts...my picky eaters LOVED it. There was barely anything left for leftovers!! Will definately make this one again!

This was so tasty and sooooooo easy!!! I have made it several times, even using fresh veggies instead of frozen and switching up the veggie combo!!!
