One pot meals that come together in a jiffy work out really well on a day you forget all about dinner and realize that you have 15 minutes to get things to the table. Technically, this is a 2 pot meal with the noodles boiling in one, and may take 20 to 25 mins. But hey, it is super easy, delicious and cleans out the fridge!
Put your noodles in a large pot to boil and cook. Chop up the veggies. Cook the veggies to preference, add the sauce mixture and the noodles. Toss like a pro, or not and serve. Of course I add a green chile, black pepper and cayenne to amp up the heat. Black pepper adds a great flavor profile too. Adjust the heat to preference. This Veggie Lo mein makes a great light dinner or side. Add some crisped or baked tofu if you like. I use buckwheat wheat soba noodles which are quite filling. Use gluten-free noodles of choice to make this gf.

Reading/Watching for the week:
The incredibly sad and tortured life on animals in the circus Industry. Chinese circus training involves hanging bear cubs by the rope on their necks to train them to walk upright, constant deprivation, torture and intimidation. Please do not support any kind of circuses. I can never fathom how it can be fun to watch animals who look scared and scarred, do unnatural acts.
