What you will Need for Ramen Salad

Easy and full of vegetables, this asian ramen salad is a big winner! For all ingredient measurements, see the recipe card below.

Ramen noodles: Use any flavor and you will remove the flavor packets. Sliced Almonds: You can use slivered almonds too, but the sliced almonds work best. Green cabbage: Slice the cabbage to bite-sized pieces yielding about 2 cups. Purple cabbage: You will also need 2 cups of sliced purple cabbage. Shredded carrots: Grate your own or you can buy pre-shredded. Green onions: Chop the onions finely.

Sweet and Savory Dressing

Rice vinegar: This is nice mild vinegar that won’t overpower the salad. Olive oil: Classic oil of choice for dressings. Soy sauce: You can use low-sodium soy sauce if you desire. Honey: Sweet honey balances the vinegar. Garlic clove: Use fresh garlic minced for the best flavor. Sesame oil: This adds a rich sesame flavor that is lovely. Sesame seeds: Adds crunch and flavor. Salt and pepper: Add to taste.

Making Asian Ramen Salad

The crunch makes it so satisfying and the texture indulgent.

Sesoning Packet: Do not add the seasoning packet to the dressing. You do not need it, save it for another use. It contains a lot of sodium and the dressing has enough flavor on its own. Toasting: Toasting the nuts and noodles keeps them extra crunchy and adds a nice toasty flavor. Short Cuts: We all run out of time sometimes. You can save yourself a lot of prep time by buying pre-shredded carrots and the pre-bagged coleslaw mix. Purple cabbage: Using a combination of both the purple and green cabbage makes for a really colorful eye-catching salad, but you can use just one or the other if you desire.

Protein: Turn this into a main dish by adding grilled chicken, salmon, shrimp or tofu. Fruit: Adding some fruit adds a sweet light touch. Mandarin oranges, chopped pineapple or mango. Vegetables: You can add in any other kind of vegetable that you think goes well with this. Edamame, mushrooms, zucchini, snowpeas and chopped peppers. Garnish: Adding cilantro gives an extra bit of freshness that is incredible.
