Dressing
- 1 cup sugar

directions
- Toast almonds and sunflower or sesame seeds in butter.
- Cool and set aside.
- Break up 2 packages (uncooked Ramen noodles).
- Just before serving, toss slaw mix, green onions, almonds and seeds.
- Mix dressing ingredients in a covered container and shake well to dissolve all the sugar.
- (You can heat up the vinegar to help dissolve the sugar) Pour dressing just before serving.
- This dressing recipe is for one batch slaw mix, but I have used it for almost double the amount of slaw mix and it is plenty and still taste good.

I received nothing but compliments on this salad. I replaced the cabbage with romaine lettuce used yellow onion instead of green and and replaced the almonds with water chestnuts (I didn't bake the chestnuts). Also, I used 1/3 the amount of vinegar using white instead of apple cidar and replaced the rest with water. 5 Stars...
