Ingredients
Salad
- 2 bags shredded cabbage I use 1 bag regular mixed coleslaw and 1 bag angel hair
- 1 pkg ramen noodles uncooked (I like Koyu, Organic Ramen Noodles), crushed, toasted
- 1 can mandarin oranges small can, drained
- 1/3 cup slivered almonds heaping cup; toasted
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds toasted
- 3 green onions chopped
- 1 can water chestnuts small can, optional
- 1 cup shredded rotisserie cooked chicken breast optional
- 3-4 sprigs chopped cilantro optional garnish
- 2 tablespoons roasted cashews optional garnish
Dressing
- 1 cup oil I use grapeseed or avocado
- ½ cup rice vinegar or white wine
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce Tamari, Bragg's Liquid Aminos or GF Soy all work
- 2 tablespoons sugar I used, natural cane sugar
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar packed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Make your dressing. Pour all dressing ingredients into a mason jar, with a tight fitting lid and shake until combined. Use the bottle to gently crush the ramen noodles (in package), then store dressing in fridge until ready to use.
- Place your almonds, sesame seeds, and crushed ramen noodles onto a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes, watch closely - you want them just golden. Remove from oven and cool completely.
- Combine cabbage, noodles, almonds, sesame seeds, green onions, chicken and mandarin oranges, water chestnuts (optional) toss to mix up. Shake dressing until combined again, pour over salad, mixing well. Refrigerate for an hour or two for best flavors. Add chopped or shredded chicken for a meal.
- Before serving, sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro and roasted cashews (optional). If you don’t plan on having any leftover, you can also add some chopped romaine, but it will get wilty if left over.
