Notes
This salad is best when the salad dressing is added 5-15 minutes before you plan to eat. That will assure a flavorful and crispy salad.
Be creative with the ingredients.
The traditional Ramen Noodle Salad would just be the cabbage, green onions, slivered almonds and sesame seeds with this delicious salad dressing. However, I have added a variety of salad options to this and it turns out great every time.
This would also be delicious with cooked chicken as a cabbage chicken salad.
