Quick Chicken Lo Mein

Now now I know this is not "real" Lo Mein ... when you are craving Chinese nothing but the real stuff will do.  However, when you have a cranky and teething toddler and a picky 7 year old (not to mention a strict budget), here's a fast, easy, and most importantly, cheap Lo Mein recipe:

Ingredients:
* 1 TBSP Sesame oil
* 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast (I have a family of 4 so we use 2lbs); cut into strips or bite-sized pieces, we do bite-size
* 1 clove garlic, minced (I might add just another 1/2 clove more)
* 2 TBSP soy or teriyaki sauce (we use soy, sodium-free kind)
* 2 tsp fresh grated ginger OR 1 tsp powder
* 1 3-oz package of chicken flavor Ramen noodles
* 1 bag frozen stir fry vegetables (again, picky eaters here so we just use one bag of snap peas)
* 1/4 cup water

Directions:
1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until no longer pink.

2. Add vegetables and cover. Cook until veggies are done.

3. Cook noodles, drain, set aside - DO NOT mix with seasoning packet.

4. Mix soy sauce, garlic, ginger, seasoning packet and water together. Mix well and pour over chicken/veggie mixture; toss with noodles.
