WOW! We love lo mein and my children preferred this over our local chinese restaurant! Wonderful taste. My family would prefer that I eliminate the nuts next time but it will not compromise the excellent flavor!

My kids and husband liked it even if it was healthier than there used too. I would suggest using fresh bell peppers instead of the frozen. It makes a big difference.

This is so good and easy! I have probably made it 15 times since I found the recipe. I do use fresh bell pepper and onion, and I also add broccoli, carrots and mushrooms. My son requests it when he comes home from college!
