Delicious! So easy to make. When I make this for my family I keep the almonds, noodles, and sesame seeds (I saute them along with the other ingredients) seperate so that they don't get soggy in leftovers and we just sprinkle them onto our individual servings. It's a big hit at potlucks as well.

This is an amazing salad - thank you Kay! The crunchy almonds - toasted sesame seeds - and sesame oil were fantastic together! Perfect sweet/sour balance.

Delicious! I couldn't find napa cabbage, so I used one of the premade cole slaw mixes from Whole Foods.

I love this salad and have made it for years. Sometimes I toast the noodles sometimes I just crunch them and add. Try the leftovers in a wrap. Every bit as good!

I love Love LOVE this easy salad. I made it almost exactly as in the recipe, but cut down a bit on the oil and vinegar. I am QUITE happy with how it turned out! I will definitely make it again and I might try reducing the oil & butter even more next time. Thanks very much for an excellent, easy, cheap recipe!

This was an excellent recipes...a keeper in our house. The only substitutions I made was I exchanged toasted cashews for almonds. I also didn't use any sunflower seeds. As another reviews said, it's best on the first day. The cashews and noodles will not stay crisp on day two, but it's still tasty!

This recipe was very good. I didn't have almonds, so I omited them, and I didn't use the ramen noodle packets. I also reserved some of the browned seseme seeds as a topping to put on top. Very very good.

This is just a great salad, to begin your meal. Now add this to your salad: I love to marinate tuna steaks (yellow fin or black) in my mixture of a dash of soy sauce, worchestershire sauce, garlic, white wine, maybe fresh cilantro. Use your imagination. Marinate a few hours or a day. Who cares? Then grill, rare, please. Take this delicious salad, place the tuna on top, and you are one heck of a chef! Going to a party??? Take some fresh shrimp, sautee in garlic and white wine. Then add them to this salad---you are another great chef! You can always add pea pods, mandrin oranges. Don't have or like Nappa cabbage (can't imagine why not), but choose another cabbage, mix Romaine lettuce. It's all good!

I love this recipe! It was very light and refreshing. The only reason I am not giving it five stars is because I did make some changes that I thought improved it. I added carrots, broccoli, pea pods, and used a lot less seaseme seeds. The colours looked amazing! Also I did not fry the noodles. I thought it added way too much fat. Instead I added the seasoning packet to the dressing mix. I crunched up the noodles and added them after adding the dressing, right before serving. It tasted awesome, and got great reviews. I am making it again for my tiki garden party that I am holding next week!

I'll admit to changing the recipe out of necessity (no ramen flavoring due to a family member with MSG allergy and using regular cabbage because store didn't have Napa cabbage), but I did not enjoy this recipe much. Even though I used the recommended sugar, it was too tart. Too many sesame seeds. Wouldn't make again.

Easy to make and tasty! Here are the changes I made: used "oriental" instead of "chicken" flavored ramen, didn't use sesame seeds (didn't have any on hand), used 1/4 light sesame oil instead of vegetable oil. My daughter loved it and we will make it again!
