Quick Stir-Fried Vegetables & Ramen Noodles

A Lo Mein dish is a crowd pleaser at many potluck parties. I find that using Ramen noodles is another quick way to make this stir-fried dish at home in no time. Most of us will always have packages of Ramen noodles in our pantries. With a simple stir-fried sauce, a pack of Ramen noodles, and some fresh or frozen vegetables, this dish will please most every hard taste food critic.
