1/2 head green cabbage -- chopped (as for slaw -- or buy a bag of pre-shredded slaw veggies) 1/2 carrot -- shredded 4 green onions -- chopped 1 package ramen noodles (Oriental flavor) 2 Tablespoons slivered almonds -- sunflower seeds, and sesame seeds Dressing -- whisk or shake together: 1/2 cup salad oil 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 3 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper Flavor packet from ramen noodles
Toast the nuts & seeds in a warm oven for 6-8 minutes, watching carefully to prevent over-toasting. Cool.
Combine veggies. Break up noodles and add to veggies. Shortly before serving, add nuts & seeds & dressing, and toss well (don't dress too far ahead, because you want the nuts, seeds & noodles to stay crunchy).
