As we welcome the Year of the Snake, I'm excited to share a delicious and meaningful way to celebrate Lunar New Year with Braised Beef Noodles.

This Cantonese-inspired dish traditionally takes at least 4 hours to make. Using MiLa's noodle packet is quick and easy - it will only take you from prep to plate in 10 minutes, making this dish the perfect meal for busy weeknights.
