A warming weekend dish - chunks of tofu are combined with an assortment of mushrooms in a simple but flavorful braising liquid. Replace the chicken broth with vegetable broth to turn this into a vegetarian dish.

We all know that noodles are a popular New Year food as they represent a long life. But according to Flavor and Fortune magazine, string beans also stand for long life. In this recipe for Chinese Beef with String Beans, marinated strips of beef are paired with string beans in a simple sauce. Longevity Noodles
