Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Small saucepan
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • Use two packages of ramen noodles but discard the included seasoning packets.
  • 1 small head of cabbage shredded
  • 3 green onions thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot julienned
  • 1 cup cooked and shelled edamame
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds toasted
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds

For the dressing:

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Veggies: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, sliced green onions, julienned carrot, and edamame.
  • Crunchy Add-ins: Crush the ramen noodles while still in the packet and add them to the salad along with toasted almonds and sunflower seeds.
  • Dressing: In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Bring to a slight simmer, then remove from heat and let cool.
  • Combine: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together until well-coated.
  • Chill: Let the salad sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Protein-Packed: Add grilled chicken or shrimp to turn this salad into a hearty meal.
  • Veggie Variety: Mix in bell peppers, broccoli, or snap peas for more color and crunch.
  • Nutty Alternatives: Use chopped pecans or walnuts instead of almonds for a different nutty flavor.
  • Spice It Up: Include a dash of chili flakes or sriracha in the dressing for a spicy kick.
  • Herbal Notes: Garnish with fresh cilantro or mint for a fresh herbal finish.
