Use different noodles: If you have trouble finding chow mein noodles or egg noodles, you can substitute regular spaghetti noodles or ramen noodles. You could also use any type of stir-fried noodle or a package of Yakisoba noodles and discard the seasoning packet. Just make sure to boil the noodles for a couple of minutes before adding them to the sauce.
