Crunchy Noodle Slaw ...like coleslaw, but better
If you don't like coleslaw because it's too healthy, then here's a crunchy slaw recipe that will remedy that, but you will still find plenty of good nutrition in this delicious salad with Ramen noodles
and toasted nuts. The great thing about this coleslaw recipe is that it's easy to alter and it will still taste great. There are a lot of strong flavors in the salad, so add more of what you like and less of what you want to avoid. Over the years, we've really cut back on the amount of sugar we put in this recipe, but it still tastes great.

What You Need To Make Crunchy Coleslaw
Salad:
2 pkg BEEF RAMEN NOODLES
1 cup slivered ALMONDS
1 cup SUNFLOWER SEEDS
1 lb CABBAGE
3-4 GREEN ONIONS
Dressing:
2 Tbsp VINEGAR
¼ cup OLIVE OIL
¼ cup SUGAR
1 tsp SESAME OIL
some of the NOODLE SEASONING Package (to taste...add slowly...it's strong stuff!)
...Also, add a bit of water to the dressing if you wish to thin it.
How to Make Crunchy Asian Coleslaw
Break up the ramen noodles while still in the packaging, and set aside the flavor pack after opening.
In an oven preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, on a baking sheet, toast the ramen noodles, nuts, and seeds. This will only take about 3-5 minutes; watch them closely as they toast, they will
burn quickly.
Set toasted items aside to cool.
Combine the dressing elements in a small bowl and mix well. Adjust sugar, sesame oil, and noodle flavor pack to taste. Use the noodle flavor pack sparingly because it is a very strong flavor.
Slice cabbage into narrow strips and desired lengths. I like to use at least two types of cabbage for a variety of colors, but use only one type of cabbage if you like.
Chop up green onions. I chop the white bottoms finer than the green tops.
In a large bowl combine cabbage and green onion.
Add dressing and mix well.
Add in crunchy toasted elements and toss with cabbage.
And that's it.
Serve this crunchy coleslaw as a side dish, or even as an entree. If you're making it for a pot luck, you can make the elements of the crunchy salad in advance, and then combine them before
serving.
