Preparation
For the sauce:

2. In a separate pan, scramble eggs and set aside.
For the noodles:

For the Vegetable Lo Mein:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Combine all ingredients into hotel pans: 9.75lb pasta, 1.5 cups sauce, 2lb vegetables, and 3lb scrambled eggs per pan. (There are 25 servings per pan).
3. Reheat lo mein for 15-20 minutes until an internal temperature of 165 degrees is reached.
Additional Instructions:
1. Vegetable substitutions: onions, snap peas, sliced mushrooms, chopped bell peppers, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, celery, etc.
2. Vegetables can be cooked in steamer, blanched on stove top, or stir-fried in tilt (with vegetable oil).
3. If tilt is available, cook all vegetables, then add raw eggs, then noodles, and combine all. May need to add water if held for more than an hour.

Menu Development
When we change from ready-to-heat foods to fresh foods in the context of menu planning, letting go of prior presumptions is important. Determining the amount of choices and how many per each age group are examples of menu planning challenges. Efficient, fiscally sustainable scratch-cooking programs are reducing choices in favor of fresh flavors.
