This is one my very favorite salads.It's always a hit wherever I take it. I use one packet of Oriental (or Teriyaki) noodles and one packet of chicken. Note: DON"T cook the noodles first. Just break them up into fairly small pieces while still in the package and dump them in! They may be a little crunchy, but this is part of the special appeal of this salad. The noodles will continue to absorb liquid from the other ingredients and "soften" after awhile.(But even with soft noodles the next day, leftovers are still good to me!) I also use almonds (slivered or sliced), instead of peanuts, along with sunflower kernels.

SUPER! Easy and Tasty! Big hit at last night's Bunco. Changes: 1/3 C sugar, not 1/2 (dieter's you know) 2 bags of regular slaw, brocolli florets, no nuts, added yellow raisens, 1 chicken ramen & 1 teriaki. Huge Hit! Will be a staple in my recipe box!

This was a hit at my BBQ last night! Everyone went back for seconds. Guests even asked if they could take some home and/or get the recipe! Very yummy! I could have made it an entire meal!

I thought this recipe was just ok. I am not sure what I was expecting, but the flavor just wasn't right. Maybe it was because I only had "hot and spicy" ramen noodles and used that instead of chicken flavor.

I loved the salad, but had to make it twice. I wished the recipe said to cook the ramen noodles first! I guess since I was new to this ingredient, I didn't think to cook them first. My first batch had crunchy noodles! Thanks for the recipe!

I'm sorry to disagree with the other positive reviews but we didn't care for this much. We LOVE broccoli but did not care for the texture/taste of the broccoli coleslaw mix. I MIGHT try this again with the pre-packaged, regular coleslaw mix as I like the idea and the dressing "flavor" wasn't bad. Since most of this was passed over after a few bites and my soup didn't exactly turn out, we tossed what was left and found a pizza instead. Thanks anyways.

This is one of my favorite salads to make. Since I am a college student, it is very affordable and more healthy than some other foods. The only things I do differently is: use beef flavored Ramen, Virgin Olive Oil, and Almond Slivers. Overall, this is a great recipe for any type of budget.

There were way too many noodles - one package would have been plenty. The seasoning packet I used, chicken, was to salty and overpowering

Wow! I made this recipe 3 times in one week for different get-togethers. Everyone raved and asked for the recipe. I used the Teriyaki flavor as another reviewer suggested, and it came out great! It's so easy to scale this recipe up and down for large groups, I'll make it again and again!
