Zucchini Lo Mein

I love this zucchini lo mein! It’s packed with flavor and the lo mein noodles are actually spiralized zucchini! The zucchini does a great job of canvasing all the amazing flavors in this dish and I love the texture it takes on when it’s cooked.

My family loves this recipe too and it’s a great way to pack a whole bunch of vegetables into a single dish. I use chicken in this recipe but if you wanted to switch it out with any other protein or leave it out of the recipe all together that would be fine too. It would taste great with tofu, tempeh, pork, beef or seafood.

• 1 large red bell pepper – sliced into thin strips

• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• ~2 cups snow peas – I just grab two big handfuls
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce or liquid aminos
