This Tofu Vegetable Lo Mein is going to become a regular weeknight dish for us. After all, who doesn’t love noodles?
Vegetable lo mein is so easy to make and you can really use any veggies you have around. The best part of this lo mein though is the tofu.
Sriracha Tofu Marinade
I don’t know why using Sriracha in my tofu marinade has never occurred to me before. I couldn’t stop snacking on the tofu after it was baked in the oven.

I mean, I normally find myself snacking on cooked tofu cubes, but the Sriracha gave it a huge boost in taste.
The tofu cubes can be made ahead of time and you can use them in anything else you want to as well. Toss them into your salad, stir fry dishes, or just snack on them alone!
Use Any Vegetables
For my veggies, I wanted a mix of colors, so I went for a red bell pepper, carrots and snow peas. Feel free to add greens like spinach, bok choy or kale. I stayed away from the greens this time because I wanted all my veggies to have a slight crunch.
Snow peas, bell peppers and carrots are the best for that.

Simple Vegetarian Lo Mein Sauce
The sauce in this lo mein dish is fairly simple and doesn’t really require fancy ingredients. If you don’t have mirin, you can substitute dry sherry or rice wine vinegar or just skip it all together.
There’s no reason to order take out when lo mein is this easy to make at home. It’s healthier too since you know exactly what goes into it.
Vegetable lo mein is sure to be a pleaser for everyone at your dinner table. Enjoy!
