Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Break the uncooked ramen noodles into small pieces and spread them on a baking sheet along with the sliced almonds. Toast in the oven for 5–7 minutes or until golden brown, stirring halfway through for even browning. Remove from the oven and let cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrot. Add the thinly sliced green onions and sesame seeds to the mix.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, vegetable oil, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine thoroughly.
Just before serving, add the toasted ramen and almonds to the coleslaw and gently toss again to mix. This helps maintain their crunch.
Serve immediately as a stand-alone salad or as a side dish for grilled meats, sandwiches, or Asian-inspired meals.
