Gluten-free Lo mein option
To make this easy vegan Asian Takeaway favorite gluten-free I recommend simply replacing the ramen noodles with rice noodles. Rice noodles taste AMAZING and take as little time to make. Just boil a pot of water, place the noodles in a large bowl and cover with the hot water. Place a lid on top and wait 5-10 minutes for the rice noodles to be ready. That’s how easy they are to cook.
Quick Easy Vegan Ramen Noodles Lo Mein cooking hack
Making Lo Mein is already super quick, but if you want it to go even faster, you can get a bag of pre-cut frozen veggies from the grocery store. It’s usually possible to find frozen veggies full of chopped carrots, peppers and broccoli. Sometimes you will find the bags with spinach or kale and those will work just as well.
If you can’t find a bag with the exact veggie mix don’t worry. Most veggies work really well in Lo Mein.
