Chow Mein

This recipe comes from the year 1967 from the Kansan`s Silver Spoon Cookbook. I am planning on putting all of the recipes from the paper that i have ,so check back often to see what is new with these recipes. I have a few of them from years gone by. I may also put recipes from the old workbasket magazines, as I have quite a few. I am trying these recipes out , for the most part, some I will not be trying as the ingredients I can not find or is too expensive, as we are all dealing with cutbacks.

Now here is the recipe and I have tried this one and it is sure good.
