Chow Mein Your Choice Of Meat
This is my recipe for chow mein. i can usually make this at a drop of the hat. if you have leftover meat from another meal, you can use it in place of the ground beef - about 2 cups of cooked meat. also, if you use chicken, use chicken bouillon instead of beef. most chow mein recipes have mushrooms, but i don't use them because of an allergy. this can be served with rice or chow mein noodles.
