Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (12 oz.) bag broccoli slaw mix
1 bunch of green onions, sliced including some of the green blades
1 cup salted cashew pieces
1 cup Craisins dried cranberries (can use raisins)
1/2 cup oil (whatever you prefer, vegetable, canola or extra virgin olive oil)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup rice wine or cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 tsp. soy sauce
2 pkgs. chicken flavored Ramen noodles, crushed with seasoning packets reserved

Steps:

In a salad bowl toss together the broccoli slaw mix, green onions, cashews and Craisins.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar, vinegar, water, soy sauce, and Ramen seasoning packets. Whisk until the sugar and seasoning mix is dissolved.
Pour this mixture over the salad and toss. Refrigerate for at least an hour. You can prepare this several hours ahead of time. The salad just gets tastier.
Right before serving, sprinkle in the crushed Ramen noodles and toss all of the ingredients so that they all have some of the dressing on them. If you do not want the noodles crunchy and like them softer, add them before refrigerating. I like them with a little crunch.
