Chinese Noodle Salad

This is a fantastic light salad that would go great to any potluck! Makes about 6 servings.

Ingredients
• 1 head Napa or bok choy cabbage OR pre-shredded bag cabbage
• 5 large green onions
• 2 (3-ounce) package ramen noodles (save one seasoning pack for dressing)
• 1 (6-ounce) package slivered almonds
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 3 tablespoons white vinegar or rice wine vinegar (preferred)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• (optional) a few thin slices of red onion for color

Directions
Preheat the broiler.
Tear the cabbage and slice the onions, and place in a large salad bowl. Crumble the noodles into a broiler pan or cookie sheet, add the almonds, sesame seeds, and broil for 2 minutes, being careful not to scorch the sesame seeds. In a jar with a tight lid, combine the oil, sugar, vinegar, and salt with the contents of the seasoning pack. Cover the jar and shake well to blend the dressing. Pour the dressing over the salad, add the toasted sesame and almond, and toss to combine.

Variations: This is good with chicken added to make a more hearty salad. Could also add mandarin oranges.
