Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
- 2 packs ramen noodles (uncooked, no seasoning)
- 0.5 cup slivered almonds
- 0.25 cup sunflower seeds (optional)
- 3 stalks green onions (sliced thinly)
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 0.3 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 0.25 cup sesame seeds (optional)
- black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, slivered almonds, sunflower seeds (if using), and sliced green onions.
2. Open the packs of ramen noodles and set aside the seasoning packets (you will not need them for this recipe). Break the noodles into small bite-sized pieces and add them to the coleslaw mixture.
3. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, rice vinegar, granulated sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper until well combined.
4. Pour the dressing over the coleslaw mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly coated.
5. For best results, let the salad sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and soften the noodles slightly.
6. Before serving, sprinkle sesame seeds (if using) over the top for added texture and flavor.
7. Serve chilled and enjoy!
