Ingredients

For the Sauce

Instructions

For the Noodles

  • Prepare the noodles according to the instructions on the package.

For the Turkey

  • Add some oil to a skillet over medium high heat. Add in the turkey and cook it until it has browned. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

For the Vegetables

  • Wash and prepare all of your vegetables. Cut your red pepper, onion, and mushrooms into thin slices so they cook quickly. Use a vegetable peeler to create ribbons out of your carrots. You'll want to do all of this prep work before you start cooking them, the cooking process goes fast.
  • In a large pot, add some oil and add the onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until they have begun to develop color.
  • Add in the coleslaw mix. Stir and cook for a minute or two.
  • Make room in the pot and add the red pepper to the pot. Allow them to develop a bit of color then add in the shredded carrots and stir. Continue to cook until the vegetables have softened.
  • Stir in the spinach and allow it to wilt.
  • For the mushrooms I prefer to cook them separately so they can develop color. If you are feeling lazy you can throw them in at any point of the cooking process. I like to add them to a dry skillet over medium heat, salt them, and cook them until they have browned. Add them to the pot with the other vegetables.

For the Lo Mein

  • Mix all of the sauce ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Drain the water from the noodles and add them to a skillet with the sauce. You just want to toss the noodles with the sauce so they are evenly coated.
  • Add the noodles and turkey to the large pot with the vegetables. Stir to incorporate and season with salt and pepper as needed.
