Ingredients

• 16 ounces coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
• 2 packs instant ramen noodles (uncooked, any flavor)
• 0.5 cups sliced almonds
• 4 stalks green onions (sliced)
• 0.25 cups sunflower seeds
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 0.25 cups vegetable oil
• 0.25 cups rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Break the ramen noodles into small pieces and set aside the seasoning packets (you won’t need the seasoning for this recipe).

Step 2

In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the broken ramen noodles and sliced almonds for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden brown and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool completely.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, toasted ramen noodles, almonds, sliced green onions, and sunflower seeds.

Step 4

In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the soy sauce, vegetable oil, rice vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper until the sugar is dissolved and the dressing is well combined.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the coleslaw mixture and toss everything together until evenly coated.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Before serving, toss the coleslaw again and adjust seasoning to taste, if necessary. Serve chilled as a side dish or enjoy on its own!
