Stove Top Dinner

Anyone hungry? Here's an interesting dinner than someone like me can do! (If I can do it then you can too!) Oh and you should give my Mom some credit too, she kinda made me make it by giving me the spatula and telling me to stir!

What you need for Vegetable Chow Mien is: 

1 clover                                            1t Ginger
1 carrot (cut in strips)                        1 can water chestnuts
1c. broccoli                                        2c. mushrooms
4c. spaghetti

1) Coat the frying pan with Pam
2) Saute the pan with ginger and garlic. Add the water chestnuts (if you use them) and the broccoli. Add cooking oil to keep the veggies wet and cook able. [Mom's tip]
   Cook the water chestnuts (if you have them) and the broccoli, set aside in a separate bowl.
3) Add in the mushrooms (with cooking oil), stir fry until cooked thoroughly ((Look for the mushrooms to be darker than the brown they were before going into the pan, they will also curl slightly))
4) Cook the spaghetti (or whatever you use) in a separate pan on the stove as they are usually cooked, then add the spaghetti in the same pan as the mushrooms and the broccoli, stir all together, put top on the pan and mix again when serving. Or serve separately if you're one of those people who don't like to mix their food.

Enjoy! (And thank my Mother too when you get the chance for this idea!)
