LONGEVITY NOODLES WITH CHICKEN, GINGER, AND MUSHROOMS
This dish is traditionally eaten for Chinese New Year. Everything is cut long to symbolize longevity, hence the name. This version is adapted from "Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge" by Grace Young. Please note, this recipe uses fresh noodles; if using dried follow package instruction and it will take longer to make.

QUICK AND EASY LONGEVITY NOODLES
I found only one other recipe here at Zaar for Longevity Noodles. I am sure that is it delicious (it IS a Nurse Di recipe! and her stuff is great), but for me, quick and easy with fewer ingredients works better sometimes. This is a cross between chicken noodle soup and egg drop soup. Add some minced garlic for a bit of flavor variety.
