Asian Cabbage Salad

I’ve had this recipe for a long time. Having found myself with a bunch of ramen noodles I decided to make it for a cook out. I forgot just how much I liked it. It is simple to make. You just crumble up ramen noodles and place in a strainer. Pour over boiling water, let them drain and mix with the rest of the ingredients. It also calls for shredded cabbage, but you could cole slaw mix. I admit I am not a big fan of the seasoning packet, which is called for in the dressing. You can just leave it out and add a little extra salt. That’s what I did.
