This awesome oriental / Asian coleslaw is great for BBQ’s, cookouts and potlucks.

Ingredients

Base Mix

1 lb Packaged Cole Slaw

1 cup Green Onion, chopped

1 cup Sunflower Seeds

1 cup Sliced Almonds

2 Pkgs. Ramen Noodles(Oriental or Beef Flavor)

Dressing

⅓ cup Sugar

⅓ cup Red Wine Vinegar

½ cup Oil(Vegetable or Canola)

2 Pkgs. Ramen Seasoning

Directions

Combine Base Mix in Large (4 qt) Bowl

Combine Dressing Ingredients in a small bowl

Pour Dressing over Base Mix & mix well. It is now ready to eat or refrigerate overnight for a more marinated salad.

Additional Notes

This will make about 2 1/2 Qt. of Salad. Make as a side or add Grilled Chicken for a complete Meal.

You can usually buy the ingredients pre-cut & packaged to cut prep time and make this salad in 5 minutes. I usually just buy the bagged already chopped up coleslaw and just add the other ingredients to save time.

The pleasingly chewy biscotti are coated on one end with white chocolate. In our test kitchen, imported white chocolate, such as Perugina or Lindt, yielded the best results.

Kale Salad with Pinenuts, Currants and Parmesan

In a surprising twist, Tuscan kale is served raw—and makes for a substantial and satisfying winter salad. Be sure to choose bunches of Tuscan kale with small leaves, which are more tender.
