Oriental Three Lettuce Salad

JenJenMarie's Note:

I had to have this recipe after eating this at my uncle's birthday party on the 4th of July. It is really good! I was not sure of the size of the package of Ramen noodles, so I estimated. It is the standard small rectangle package.

Ingredients:

Serves: 10

• ½ cup wine vinegar
• 1 cup sugar

Directions:

1. Add vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce into a jar and shake until sugar is dissolved. Add oil and shake. Sometimes I cut back on the amount of oil and sugar and use 1/2 cup of each. Just a matter of taste.
2. Saute ramen noodles and walnuts in margarine until slightly golden. Drain and cool.
3. Combine lettuce, green onion, and topping in a large bowl. When ready to serve, shake dressing and pour on salad, then serve. Do not put dressing on until ready to serve. Dressing will being breaking down the lettuce.
