There are times when you need a filling meal the entire family will eat, but you don’t have time to hang out in the kitchen for an hour or two working on a meal. If you have some ground venison and frozen stir fry vegetables, you can have this one on the table in less than half an hour, and everyone will love it.
Venison lo mein is a one dish complete meal the entire family will love.
If you can’t find udon noodles at your local grocery store, just substitute regular spaghetti. The result will be just as good.
Measure out all of your ingredients before beginning the cooking process so that it keeps things moving quickly.
