How to Make Crazy Easy Lo Mein

  1. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Stir in 2 (10.75 ounce) jars of beef gravy, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger.
  3. Add 2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables (thawed) to the skillet.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. While the sauce simmers, cook 1 lb of spaghetti noodles according to package directions. Drain well.
  6. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the meat and vegetable sauce. Toss to coat evenly.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your restaurant-quality lo mein at home!
