Crunchy, colorful, and delightfully simple, Ramen Coleslaw Cabbage Salad is a must-try twist on traditional coleslaw. This vibrant dish combines finely shredded green and red cabbage, julienned carrots, and crisp green onions with the irresistible crunch of toasted almonds, sesame seeds, and broken ramen noodles. Tossed with a sweet and tangy homemade dressing featuring rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and the signature ramen seasoning packet, this quick-to-prepare salad perfectly balances savory, sweet, and nutty flavors. Ready in just 15 minutes, this no-cook salad is perfect as a refreshing side dish for BBQs, potlucks, or weekday dinners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, and sliced green onions. Set aside.
Take the uncooked ramen noodles and break them into small bite-sized pieces. Add the ramen pieces to the cabbage mixture.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sliced almonds and sesame seeds until golden brown and fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Let them cool, then add them to the salad bowl.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the vegetable oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and the seasoning packet from the ramen noodles until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss everything together until evenly coated.
Let the salad sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and for the ramen to soften slightly, but still retain its crunch.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Toss gently again before serving.
