Broccoli Slaw Lo Mein Recipes

CATHY'S QUICK STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI SLAW SIDE DISH

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in large skillet or wok.
• Add garlic. Sautee garlic slightly, infusing oil with garlic flavor. Monitor heat carefully to avoid burning.
• Add broccoli coleslaw, and stir fry until crisp-tender. (I cheated and put the cover on my skillet for a little while to speed things along with a little steam).
• Add soy sauce and splenda, and continue to cook until splenda is disolved and liquid is absorbed. Taste test, and determine whether or not you'd like to add more splenda, soy sauce, or salt and pepper. Adjust seasonings accordingly.
• Place in serving bowl, and top with toasted pine nuts. Toss slightly, but no so much that pine nuts drop all the way to the bottom of the bowl.
• Note: To toast pine nuts, I placed them in a heavy pan, over medium-low heat, and tossed and shook the pan to keep them moving, until they started to show some browning and until they started to smell toasted and more intense.

PORK AND VEGETABLE LO MEIN (EASY AND DELICIOUS)

Steps:

• ***NOTE:I like to buy the coleslaw mix in the produce section.
• Already shredded--a real time saver.
• ***NOTE:If I'm in a hurry, I also buy the carrots already shredded in the produce section, and use instead of sliced.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok.
• Sauté pork, onion, garlic and pepper flakes until meat is no longer pink.
• Remove this mixture from pan and keep warm.
• Add remaining tbsp of oil (or more as needed) to pan and sauté cabbage, bok choy or celery, carrots and peppers until crisp tender.
• Add spaghetti to cooked veggies in the pan.
• Stir in soy sauce and add pork mixture back to the pan.
• Cook for 5 minutes or until heated through.
• (At this step, I like to get the noodles nice and dark, by cooking a bit longer. You decide).
