Easy Vegetable Lo Mein is a great go to for those busy days. This dish can come together in about 30 minutes. You can also add the vegetables that your kids will enjoy eating. One of my picky kids won’t eat peas, so if you have a picky child like I do, just leave whatever they don’t like out of part of your dish.
You might enjoy the spinach and maybe your kids do not. Then go ahead and leave it out of part. Mushrooms are another vegetable that either people like them or they do not!
Maybe you have a vegetable that you want to add. I think I might add zucchini, since my plant is starting to mass produce.
