Ramen Noodle Slaw

Submitted by tree luee dee

"This summer my son graduated from high school, and we attended over 20 graduation parties. Needless to say, we're now broke (lol), but I also got quite a few wonderful recipes. This is one of them. To make it a complete meal, just add chicken. While this does not have to be cooked, I added 30 minutes under "cooking time" because it does have to chill for 30 minutes."

I completely loved this recipe. The texture/crunch of this was out of this world. Also, the taste was excellent. I did use 2 tbl of soy instead of 1 tea, as I am wild about soy. I did not have any green onions, so I used 1 tbl of minched instead. I took the advice about adding chicken, and it made a fantastic meal. Thanks for the keeper.

I didn't have cider vinegar, so I substituted with white vinegar. I used sliced almond instead of silvered and forget to add the seasoning package in the salad dressing. I still loved this salad and give it 5 stars. Next time I will add the seasoning and chicken for a meal. I can hardly wait.

Very good. I was looking for something different. This is a nice change.

I'm not usually a recipe "tweaker", but I love the flavors in this recipe and thought switching up a couple of things might make it even better. I subbed some of the oil with sesame oil, I replaced the sunflower seeds with toasted sesame seeds and I browned the ramen noodles in a skillet with a little butter just until they were golden. I have to say, I like this salad both ways!
