Cold Noodle Salad
Report
This cold noodle salad is made with plenty of vibrant veggies and a creamy peanut-y dressing that has a perfect balance of sesame oil and lime to it as well. I could slurp up the dressing with a straw if it was a normal thing to do! Serve cold as is or amp it up with chicken or hard boiled eggs on top!

Ingredients
Dressing
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter
- 2 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil
- 2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. white sugar
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 tsp. fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tsp. fresh garlic, minced
For the salad
- 4 packs ramen noodles, ~8-9 oz. Is plenty (but any noodle works! I also love this salad with thin egg noodles, rice noodles, regular ol' spaghetti noodles, or udon noodles).
- 1 red or yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 4 green onions, sliced on a diagonal
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 cup red cabbage, shredded
- 3/4 cup peanuts
- 1 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the noodles according to package directions. Drain them, rinse with cold water and set aside. Pro tip: toss noodles in a little sesame oil to prevent them from sticking.
- Whisk together all ingredients for the dressing in a small mixing bowl until smooth. Taste and adjust as needed (thin out dressing with more soy sauce, or thicken with a little more peanut butter based on your preference).
- Assemble the salad. Add the noodles and all salad ingredients to a large bowl. Toss together with the dressing. Chill salad for 30 minutes.
- Garnish with more sesame seeds, green onions, peanuts, etc. and enjoy!
Notes
- Store in an air-tight container for up to 4 days in the fridge.
