I made a huge batch and I didn't add the oranges. I found by adding less sugar and the oil (to taste) the salad stayed crunchy with the less dressing even a few days later. Highly recommend.

Delicious. Got lots of compliments on this salad when I made it for a cookout. Will definitely make again. I soaked the noodles for 5 min to separate, but next time will not soak at all for more 'crunch'.

Awesome! My family can't get enough of this salad. It's sweet & tangy. Adding ramen noodles to cole slaw my sound weird, but it's delicious! Remains a family favorite.

Based on the previous reviews, I made a few alterations to this. Basically, I made half the dressing for the full amount of salad. It was just enough to coat the cabbage. Everyone LOVED it! I used 1 package of oriental flavored noodles, 1/4 cup veg oil, 1/4 cup sugar, and just under 1/4 cup of vinegar (rice wine and white wine mixed). I added the dressing to the coleslaw, oranges, water chestnuts and scallions and refrigerated it for several hours. Immediately before serving, I added the seeds, nuts and the crushed UNCOOKED noodles. Delicious and crunchy! Will certainly be making this again.

Everyone loved this and it was really easy to make. I left out the oranges but might try adding them next time.

My mother-in-law made this for a family dinner and it was DELISH!!! She did not add the mandarin oranges or the cashews since she can't eat them, but everything else was added and it was GREAT!! I had to beg for the recipe. Everyone loved it.

Out of this world!! I couldn't believe how wonderfully this salad turned out. My boyfriend couldn't stop raving about it over dinner, and he continued to talk about it the next day! I omitted the sunflower seeds and cut the sugar down to 1/3 a cup. This salad is a must try!
