Directions
This salad is prepared in three steps, the ingredients are listed for each step.
Step 1: 1 med. head of nappa cabbage, 1 bunch of green onions. Rinse cabbage, slice and chop onions and cabbage. Combine these two ingredients in a large bowl and chill until you are ready to prepare the rest of the salad.
Step 2: 2½ ounces of sesame seeds, 1 pack of sliced almonds (small), 2 packages of Oodles of Noodle Soup), 2 cloves of garlic (or more if you want), oil. Break noodles into tiny pieces while still in the bags, remove the seasoning pack and throw away. Saute the broken noodles, sesame seeds, and garlic in oil until lightly browned. Add salt and pepper. Store in the refrigerator.
Step 3: 2 Tablespoons soy sauce, ¾ cup rice wine vinegar, ½ cup sugar, ¼ cup oil. Combine and boil for no more than one minute. Store in refrigerator. Just before serving combine all sections and toss gently. I love mandarin oranges added. You may also add chopped cooked chicken.

NOTES : From poster (Terry): Napa cabbage is Chinese Cabbage or you can use bok choy. Top Ramen noodles can be substituted (throw away seasoning) for the Oodles of Noodles soup mix. Recipe by: TNT/Ron Chiapotta
