Cheap Chow Mien

While I've discovered that I love Low Mien after all, so long as it's made right...  I still love Chow Mien.  So, I decided to buy all the ingredients in the produce sections of a couple local stores -- and then froze EVERYTHING.  Including the precooked noodles.  I've tried several "fresh" methods of food storage/preparation, but really, this seems to work the best.  It levels the cooking times for all foods to the same time - about 3 minutes.  And then I just boiled it all together, drained off most of the water, added my Stir Fry Seasoning (also pre-packaged, but not frozen), and then, over low heat, stirred that in until only a few drops of water remained in the bottom of the kettle.

That's it.  Frozen and boiled Chow Mien.  :)
