Changed some for what I had on hand. Omitted sesame seeds, used cider vinegar, and added carrots. Divided everything up for individual servings, considering adding strawberries and chicken for tomorrow.

Delicious! Add some grilled chicken for a complete meal. I don't use all the dressing.

Made this last night it was great! But I thought the dressing was weak so I dumped it out and used 1/2 cup balsamic vinaigrette with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. I also cooked up some chicken chunks waited till they cooled off and added it in. I will make this again both my husband and teenage boys ate every bit.

I loved this recipe! I topped it with mandarin oranges (at my boyfriend's suggestion) and it was delicious! Altered the original slightly because I did not have the other ingredients on hand- used balsamic vinaigrette instead of white vinegar; sugar in the raw instead of white sugar; pumpkin seeds instead of almonds; peanut oil instead of veggie oil. I toasted the pumpkin seeds, ramen and sesame seeds in the oven without butter. Added a bit of sesame seed oil to the sauce. Pan fried chicken chunks with sesame seed oil and seeds and tossed it all together. Super yummy!!

As others have stated, this is an excellent base. I think I will be adding chicken breast next time to make it more of a meal. Definitely will be cutting down on the oil... maybe half, and will try toasting the noodles rather than browning in butter. Added sesame oil which really gives it a great and unique flavor. Also added celery and extra package of ramen noodles ('cause I love them!) and think it would be excellent with snow peas too. Will make again for sure!!!!

Made a lot of subs like the first rater advised, but WELL worth looking into. We ommitted the ramen, butter, and napa cabbage. We used whole wheat thin spaghetti (1 package) with the lesser amount of oil/dressing mixture. delicious and more nutritious this way, but loved the overall concept and the suggestions made by those before.

Am I the only one who gets annoyed when people completely change the recipe so it bears no resemblance to the original and then give it a low star rating? Like someone substituting spinach for the napa cabbage...seriously, that is not even an Asian salad any more. sheesh. Change it all you want, but don't then come along and rate the original recipe poorly just because your changes don't work out. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest!

SOOO delicious! I can't wait to make this again. I used the bagged cole slaw mix, and it turned out well. I toasted the Ramen in the oven. When making for just a few people, I will not mix in the Ramen until just before serving. Otherwise, the noodles get really soggy if you want to have the salad the next day as leftovers. I will mix up the dry ingredients just prior to eating.
