Simple Lo Mein Dinner


1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken or pork (totally optional)
1 lb bag frozen stir fry veggies
1/2 a 13.5 oz box of whole wheat linguine or spaghetti
1 cup reduced sodium broth
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 tbsp minced garlic from a jar

Get your pasta water going in one pan. Heat a skillet or wok and drizzle with evoo. Saute your chicken until cooked through and then add 1/4 cup water. Add your frozen veggies and cover. Steam for 5 minutes on high. Meanwhile, put your pasta in to cook. Whisk together the broth, juice, soy sauce, flour, and garlic. Pour this over the chicken and veggies and leave uncovered, stirring often until the sauce thickens. Drain your pasta and dump it right into the pan with the chicken, veggies, and sauce.

This serves 2 adults, 3 kids under 10, plus another adult for lunch the next day.
