My Main Lo Mein

Try different proteins like steak or tofu and mix and match different veggies to personalize this yummy lo mein. Stock Concentrate is what all the cool kids are using instead of bouillon cubes. Hoisin sauce helps to create a thick, sweet, and salty sauce. If you don’t have hoisin sauce on hand, here’s a link to make your own: Hoisin Sauce

Creamy Coleslaw

I like to use 3 parts green to 1 part purple cabbage, but you can mix it up as you please.  Celery salt is my mom’s secret cooking weapon.  She sneaks it into just about everything.
