This is a quick and easy ramen noodle coleslaw recipe using dried ramen noodles, canned mandarin oranges and toasted almonds. Delicious!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • One 14 ounce package coleslaw mix
  • 3 ounces instant ramen noodles packages with seasoning (spicy chicken or vegetable flavor are my favorites)
  • 3 green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 11 ounces canned mandarin oranges, drained

Dressing

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons plain rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing: Put all the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl and whisk until dressing has emulsified. Set aside.
  2. Toast the almonds: In a small pan over low medium heat, toast sesame seeds and sliced almonds for a couple of minutes until they turn golden brown. Transfer to a plate and let cool to room temperature.
  3. Make the coleslaw: Put coleslaw mix, mandarin oranges, scallions, almonds and sesame seeds in a bowl and break ramen noodles on top using your fingers. Pour dressing over and toss until the salad is well coated.
  4. Serve: Transfer the salad to a bowl and serve immediately.

Notes

This salad is best enjoyed immediately before the crunchy ramen noodles get soft and mushy. The crunchiness will last about 30 minutes.
