How I lightened up Beef Lo Mein:

The first thing I did was omitted the oil, so I used a nonstick skillet. That saved a lot of points!

Using a lean or extra lean cut of beef can also save points. You can choose from:

-Eye of round roast or steak

-Sirloin tip side steak

-Top round roast and steak

-Bottom round roast and steak

-Top sirloin steak

Be sure to trim any fat off the steak and drain the grease.

Everything I needed for this recipe I found in the regular grocery store. Fresh vegetables and beef, then everything else was in the Asian aisle.

I used Thai rice noodles for this recipe. Any long noodle will work, even regular spaghetti noodles.

How to make Beef Lo Mein:

Boil a pot of water and cook the noodles according to the directions on the box.

Trim any fat off of the beef then cut into 1/4-inch slices against the grain.

Add the beef to a large nonstick skillet and cook until no longer pink, then drain the grease.

Pour the beef onto a plate and cover with foil.

In a small bowl add the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Whisk together.

Add the broccoli, carrots, and red pepper to the skillet. Add 1/4 cup of water and cover the pan. The water will help to steam the vegetables.

Let the vegetables cook 5-7 minutes.

Next, add the water chestnuts, green onions, and sauce.

Add the noodles and beef. Use tongs to mix everything together. Let it cook on medium heat for 3 minutes.
