REALLY good! I only used one TB of corn starch and did not include egga (I didn't think it went with lo mein, and I didn't miss it). Thanks for a great, super easy, restaurant quality dinner!

I love to cook, and I love to eat! I have lost over 40lbs in the 1st 6 months of 2007 by following the Body for Life program of diet and exercise. I have put together 6 cookbooks to help those that are trying to get or stay fit find healthy and great tasting recipes!
Always remember to use low-fat, less calorie substitutes for any recipes that list higher fat or calorie ingredents (i.e. Milk = Skim Milk, Sugar = Splenda, Butter = Smart Balance, etc.). You really dont have to give up good taste to eat better and lose weight!
Enjoy!
