*You can use 1 or 2 packs of instant ramen noodles. If you want it to be more like coleslaw with some crunch use one pack, if you want more noodles, crunch and bulk use two! In any case, you can start with one and always add the second.
Dressing can be made 1-2 days in advance. If you prepare this salad in advance, Just before serving, add the noodles and turn them to keep them crispy.
A mandolin or the grating attachment of a food processor is suitable for chopping the cabbage. I like a mandolin for this salad. If you’re short on time, you can buy an equal amount of pre-shredded cabbage or coleslaw at your local grocery store.
For a super quick and easy ramen slaw, use 1 bag of prepared slaw mix, 1-2 packages of ramen noodles, and the dressing recipe.
Substitute sunflower seeds for the nuts if you need a nut-free recipe. If you only have one type of cabbage, that’s fine.
