Chinese Cabbage Salad


This is one of my favorite salads ever! It's always the one that I take to potlucks and family parties. Such a great twist on all the healthy stuff :-) Love it! So when I heard everyone talking about corned beef and cabbage on the news this morning for St Patty's Day, I thought that I'd do my own favorite version of cabbage to share! I hope you all enjoy!


Chinese Cabbage Salad

1 head of cabbage, shredded or sliced fine
2 pkgs chicken flavored ramen noodles, crushed(reserve seasoning for dressing)
1 cup salted sunflower seeds
3 green onions, chopped
10 mini carrots, chopped

Dressing:
1 cup vegetable oil
4 Tbsp. rice vinegar
4 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
2 pkgs reserved ramen noodle seasoning

Place the cabbage, carrots, onions, sunflower seeds and crushed ramen noodles in a large serving bowl. Mix well. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together all dressing ingredients and pour over salad mixture. Refrigerate several hours before serving.

Happy Cooking

  1. I made this salad this morning. I didn't have the rice vinegar so I used white wine v. It turned out really yummy. What is the diff? Also I added chicken chunks in mine and made it a meal. Thanks for sharing your recipes!

  2. I also like to add chicken sometimes. Rice vinegar is not quite as tart as white vinegar. I also like it because it is seasoned but you should be able to use white vinegar and be fine :-) I'm glad you're enjoying the recipes Penny!
