Cooking Steps
• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper into strips. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
• Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• While noodles cook, heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper, scallion whites, carrots, edamame, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are browned and tender, 4-6 minutes. (For 4 servings, you may need to work in batches.) • Add sweet soy glaze, chili sauce, and 1⁄4 cup water (1⁄2 cup for 4); cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce is warmed through, 30-60 seconds.
• Remove pan from heat; add drained noodles and 1⁄2 TBSP butter (1 TBSP for 4). Toss to combine. (If sauce seems too thick, add water a splash at a time until everything is coated in sauce.) Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. • Gently crush peanuts in their bag. • Divide lo mein between shallow bowls. Drizzle with as much Sriracha as you like. Garnish with scallion greens, peanuts, and wonton strips. Serve.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Some found it tasty, while others wanted more robust seasoning. Consider adding garlic or ginger for extra depth 🍲.
- Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, with many enjoying the simple cooking process and fresh ingredients.
- Suggestions: Try dicing the bell peppers instead of slicing for better distribution. Adding tofu or shrimp can boost protein.
- Portions: Good portion size for most, with enough for leftovers. Some wished for more noodles relative to vegetables.
- Texture: Ensure noodles are cooked al dente to avoid gumminess. The crunchy peanuts and wonton strips add nice contrast.
Reviews from our home cooks
The flavor was great. I felt that there should have been a better ratio of edamame to noodles. The last serving was nothing but edamame, no noodles left.
Loved the mix of ingredients in this one. The lo main noodles were easy to cook and the flavors were robust and tasty.
A jumble of ingredients. Edamame is very hard to pick up with the noodles so they might as well have been separate. Love vegetables, but would have preferred more noodles and less veggies in this dish, plus a stronger or spicier sauce.
Flavor is good and easy to make but was on the dry side. Needs bigger packets of sauce or something added.
Both my husband and I loved this meal. I didn't use any of the sriracha and only 3/4 of the bag of sweet Thai chili and just the whites of the onions. Perfect for us. Would love more like this
Delicious dish. I especially enjoyed the addition of edamame and peanuts. Did not use the lo mein, but thought this was a good dish.
Pretty good. The flavors could be improved, but I am not sure how. I am just getting used to vegetarian meals.
Love all the flavors! I added tofu just to have a little more protein.
Yummy! I thought I'd be adding chicken to boost the protein, but it felt substantial & I didn't add anything.
Pretty great, and a nice way to get a lot of veggies. I enjoyed it.
