Ingredients
- I know there are other recipes for Oriental Coleslaw here. I mentioned in a thread on "everything else" that my local grocery store makes the best one I've ever tasted, and one of the girls behind the counter gave me the recipe!
- 4 packages chicken-flavored ramen noodles (reserve seasoning packets for dressing)
- 1 bag coleslaw mix
- 1 (4ounce) bag sunflower seeds
- 3 bunches green onions, chopped
- 2 (4ounce) cans sliced water chestnuts
- 1/2 cup vinegar
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
Directions
In a large bowl, break up ramen noodles into smaller pieces.
Add coleslaw mix, sunflower seeds, green onions, and water chestnuts.
Stir to combine.
To make dressing: In a small bowl whisk together vinegar, oil, sugar, soy sauce and seasoning packets until combined.
Pour over salad, toss well to make sure dressing is evenly distributed.
If you want the noodles to soften, refrigerate overnight.
