Quick Pork Lo Mein image

This colorful main dish with crispy snow peas and baby carrots is a favorite with Denise DuBois of Coral Springs, Florida. "It's quick, healthy and the variety is endless," she notes. "I sometimes use chicken, mushrooms, bean sprouts and cashews!" TIP: Denise sometimes serves her Lo Mein over rice or spaghetti.

This recipe was a disaster! The noodles were overcooked and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste, but otherwise this was a great recipe. I'll try it again with less sugar next time.
