Easy Low Carb Lo Mein
 

Easy Low Carb Lo Mein

I must admit that sometimes I too am a fan of the term "easy".
This recipe is no exception of my personal fandom of words.

 
However, I must also admit that "easy" can also mean tasty.
When it comes to this Low Carb Lo Mein recipe, this no exception.
Indeed, this recipe is both "easy" and tasty and, thank goodness for that.
 

Contrary to what some folks believe, there is a difference between Lo Mein and Chow Mein.

Yes, I was a bit confused myself because they appear to many of us to be the same thing- both have "Mein" in their titles right? Also, both dishes features similar noodles.

But, there is a bit of a difference between Lo Mein and Chow Mein in the method in which they are prepared.
Chow Mein features a noodle that has been fried, often stir fried. However, Lo Mein, such as in this recipe, are prepared in a liquid such as water.

 

Lo Mein can often be considered to be a healthier or lower in calorie noodle if prepared to be so.

This is especially true since Lo Mein is not fried like Chow Mein is. But, I will also mention that Lo Mein is often prepared with shrimp, vegetables, or even tofu.

You could certainly add shrimp to this Lo Mein recipe.
I would probably simply prepare the Lo Mein and prepare the shrimp and the combine them together. This is an easy method to make a great tasting shrimp, or scallops or something else, dish.
 

Most home chefs will use spaghetti or a similar egg and flour noodle to make their Lo Mein.

However, this is a low carbohydrate recipe. As a result, we will use a low carb noodle rather than a regular pasta noodle, which we all know is laden with carbs.

You can find low carb spaghetti and similar noodles online.
I suggest looking for the lowest in 'net carbs' as it is often the fiber that saves us when it comes to watching the carbs in pasta. There seem to be new versions of low carb pasta that you can buy online popping up every time that I look to buy some.

Another option is to make your own noodles that are low in carbohydrates.

I have a simple recipe for making your own low carb, keto, and gluten free noodles.
You can find my recipe for these noodles here.

The noodle recipe that I referenced above is a simple recipe that requires only two ingredients.
I think that it would probably work fine when prepared as a Low Carb Lo Mein. But, I will point out that you should probably follow the directions for cooking that noodle rather than a normal pasta as there is no flour in it.

 

There are a few more ingredients that you will need which you may not already have in your kitchen.

Oyster Sauce and sesame oil can easily be found online. Look for the lowest in carbs if possible when you select yours.
