Rose Mary's Oriental Pasta Salad image

Great recipe for family, friends and church functions. There are many versions to this recipe this is mine. It is a Family Reunion Favorite, the crunch from the noodles, and the crisp broccoli, and the sweet & sour flavors from the dressing, we just love it. I always double the recipe when I make it for a large gathering.

Number Of Ingredients 14

SALAD INGREDIENTS
1 lb broccoli slaw,
1/2 lb broccoli floweretts
1 bunch green onions, chopped small
2 pkg ramen noodles, (chicken flavor)
1 large red bell pepper, chopped
1 c slivered almonds
1 c sun flower seeds
6-8 oz fresh snow peas, washed, & stems removed, cut into smaller pieces
DRESSING:
1 c olive oil or vegetable oil
1/3 c white vinegat
1/2 c splenda, or granulated sugar
2 seasoning packets from noodles

Steps:

  • 1. Crunch noodles into small pieces. Then in a large bowl combine noodles with remaining salad ingredients, and stir to mix.
  • 2. For the dressing combine all of the ingredients including both seasoning packets from the noodles. Pour into a cruet or jar with a tight fitting lid, and SHAKE VIGOROUSLY until sugar has dissolved. Leave in refrigerator till ready to serve, then shake again just before serving.
  • 3. Just before serving pour dressing over salad and toss well and serve. Garnish with extra strips of bell pepper if desired.
  • 4. Note: There is never enough broccoli floweretts in the bsg of broccoli slaw, hence the addition of the half pound, I also like fresh snow peas, so I usually wash trim & cut them into thirds to get them evenly distributed through out the salad. It is really good.
