This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the chow mein and they didn't even realize they were eating broccoli and carrots.

This chow mein was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try making it again with less oil next time.

I've tried many chow mein recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The noodles are always cooked perfectly and the sauce is flavorful and delicious.

This recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious. I especially liked the addition of the bean sprouts and peanuts.

I'm not a big fan of chow mein, but this recipe changed my mind. The noodles were perfectly cooked and the sauce was flavorful and not too oily. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some broccoli, carrots, and snap peas to mine and it turned out great.

I followed the recipe exactly and the results were disappointing. The noodles were overcooked and the sauce was bland. I won't be making this recipe again.
