The entire family loved it! The only change I made was using fresh peppers & onions. Also, I discovered it tasted better if made ahead of time & refrigerated a few hours & reheated. The flavors had more time to meld! Wonderful!!

This lo mein is a favorite in my house. I love the peanut flavor; it's unexpected and delicious! I cook mine spicier with red pepper flakes and always top it with fresh green onions and cilantro .. trust me, the cilantro makes the dish happen!
