vegetable oil
vinegar
sugar

tossed ingredients for salad in large bowl

Directions

This is a super simple recipe, just toast, toss and serve!

Prep: Break up the Ramen noodles and toast with the almonds on a baking sheet for about 10 minutes in a preheated 350˚ F oven. (Watch the oven, as they brown quickly!)

Combine: Whisk together all the salad dressing ingredients.

Toss: In a large bowl, toss together all salad ingredients. Pour the dressing over the salad. Toss together until well combined.

Make Ahead and Storing Leftovers

Yes! I prefer to make this 4 – 6 hour before serving to let the dressing really soak into the coleslaw. It’s also good when made the day before.
