Another protein packed meal! By adding zoodles and cabbage to Lo Mein noodles you get VOLUME, lots of nutritious volume.
One serving of Lo Mein has 44 grams of protein, is under 400 calories and in the under 30 minute meal bucket too. I’ll go out on a limb here and say that checks off a lot of your boxes? Me too.
Using some of the same ingredients from the High Protein Egg Roll In A Bowl you can make both recipes giving you 6 meals for the week and no ingredient wasted.
Enjoy and let me know how it turns out!

To make this as easy as I gets I am using Kikkoman Stir-Fry sauce. You can replace this with your favorite store bought or home made stir-fry sauce.
