Pork and Snap Pea Lo Mein

Made this tonight! It was soo good. Kate said it tasted like real Asian cuisine. That's a huge compliment. I used brown rice instead of pasta. Quinioa would be good too. I loved that I was able to make the rice in my rice maker while I was at yoga. I will definitely make this again!
