Want a quick,easy, colorful salad which can be put together in 10-15 minutes, then this is the recipe!
I love to make this as an appetizer, specially because it can be assembled in advance and the dressing also made a few days before. The dressing is so easy to put together, just mix it all together and keep in fridge. It can’t get any easier than that.
I used precut Coleslaw and Broccoli slaw and a very simple vinaigrette and threw in some nuts and voila, gorgeous, yummy salad! The addition of the Ramen noodles in the salad, provides the crunch and the seasonong packet in the dressing, gives it an Asian flavor.
Yes, the Ramen noodles are added raw to the salad! After adding the dressing, it seems like they just soak in all the flavors of the dressing and provide a great flavor to the salad.
