Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Break the ramen noodles into small chunks and place them on a baking sheet along with the slivered almonds and sunflower seeds.
Toast the ramen, almonds, and sunflower seeds in the oven for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown. Remove and let cool.
While the mixture is cooling, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, rice vinegar, granulated sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets and sliced green onions.
Once the ramen mixture has cooled, add it to the bowl with the broccoli and green onions.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
