Step-by-Step Instructions for Vegan Veggie Lo Mein
- Begin by bringing a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add your choice of noodles, cooking them according to the package directions until they're just al dente, usually about 4-6 minutes.
- In a non-stick skillet or wok, heat over medium-high heat for about a minute. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Now, toss in sliced red bell pepper and matchstick-cut carrots into the skillet. Stir-fry these veggies for 1-2 minutes until they soften slightly.
- Next, add snow peas and sliced mushrooms to the mix. Continue to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Now it’s time to add chopped green onions and your leafy greens. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the greens are wilted.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the reduced sodium soy sauce, dark soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, tahini, rice vinegar, and coconut sugar until well combined.
- Pour half of your prepared sauce over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Stir the mixture gently, ensuring that all the vegetables are well-coated.
- Now, add the rinsed noodles to the skillet, followed by the remaining sauce. Gently toss everything together for about 1-2 minutes over low heat.
- Once everything is perfectly mixed and heated through, transfer your Vegan Veggie Lo Mein to bowls. Garnish with extra green onions, sesame seeds, or red pepper flakes.

Notes
Use a mix of fresh vegetables for best texture. Slice harder vegetables thinly for even cooking. Consider adding crispy tofu or seitan for added protein.
