Keto Lo Mein – Just Like Takout!
{THM:S, Low Carb, Ketogenic}

Making Keto Lo Mein is simple! With some chopping, frying, and tossing, you'll have a veggie and protein-packed lo mein that is ketogenic and a takeout copycat right in your kitchen.

Lo Mein is a chinese takeout staple. It is inexpensive to make, fast, and simple for most takeout joints. And we all love it!

I've made a copycat Keto Lo Mein recipe, but the beautiful part about it isn't the recipe – it's the flexibility to make it your own!

I shared a picture of me eating this for lunch on Instagram and Facebook, and you all were SO excited for the recipe so I moved it up on the list!

Sure, I've given you measurements and instructions for the sauce, vegetables, and noodles (yep, keto noodles!), but you can always adjust the ingredients to your liking or to what you have on hand.

Let's break down what takeout lo mein is usually made of, along with their ketogenic and whole30/paleo substitutes:

Lo Mein Noodles —> Kelp, Konjac, or Shirataki Noodles, and/or cabbage
Soy Sauce —>> Coconut Aminos
Sugar —->> Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener, Swerve, or any other stevia or monkfruit sweetener
Oyster Sauce —>> This is a personal choice. Probably not Whole30, and we don't have a good substitute for it yet! (If you have one, please leave me a comment and let me know!)

All in all, the ingredients are a pretty simple conversion! I've linked to the specific products you'll need above and below.

Did you know I have an Amazon Storefront? I've stocked it with all of my favorite clean, primal, products – products you'll actually find in my pantry every single day.

No more hunting for just the right product – you can find them all right HERE.

Now that we've broken down this recipe more than you probably wanted to, here's what you'll need to make Keto Lo Mein….

For The Sauce:
Coconut Aminos
Lakanto Confectioner's Sweetener {sweeten to preference}

For The Lo Mein
Cole slaw mix, approx 12 ounces
Noodles of choice {kelp, shirataki, or konjac}
Thinly sliced bell pepper {I used yellow, orange, and red}
Thinly sliced onion
Chopped Green Onion
Sesame Oil, for frying
Chopped Chicken

This recipe sounds delicious! I just want to make you aware that cooking with sesame oil is not recommended. They recommend adding at the end of whatever you are cooking because it has a very low smoke point. Meaning, it can get rancid or toxic very fast. But other than that, can’t wait to try this! 😊
