SALLY'S NAPA CABBAGE SALAD

Sally's Napa Cabbage Salad image

My sister introduced us to this delicious salad, made with napa cabbage, ramen noodles, and a special dressing. Napa cabbage gives it a firm, crisp texture that is essential. Any flavor of ramen is good--I prefer the chicken or Oriental.
