A nice refreshing salad for the summer. I do not care for coleslaw but this salad is wonderful. It does not have the heavy mayo base. The dressing also works wonderfully on a tossed green salad or steamed veggies.

Time 45m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1/2 cup toasted slivered almonds
1/2 head shredded cabbage
4 -5 green onions, finely chopped
1 package chicken-flavored ramen noodles, uncooked crumbled into small pieces

1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 packet seasoning, from noodles

Steps:

  • Combine the first five ingredients.
  • Mix the dressing and add right before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage. This will help the cabbage absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor to shred the cabbage. Just be careful not to over-process it, or the cabbage will become mushy.
  • For a sweeter salad, use a sweeter variety of cabbage, such as savoy cabbage or red cabbage.
  • If you like a more tangy salad, add more vinegar or lemon juice to the dressing.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as shredded carrots, celery, or cucumber.
  • For a more substantial salad, add some cooked protein, such as grilled chicken or shrimp.
