Asian Coleslaw Light Recipes

Steps:

• Place ramen noodles in colander; break into quarters. Pour boiling water over noodles to soften slightly. Use a fork to separate noodles. Rinse quickly with cold water; drain.
• Make a dressing by whisking together the flavor packet from the ramen noodles, olive oil, vinegar, and sweetener in a bowl. Place the ramen noodles, coleslaw mix, green onions, and sunflower seeds in a large bowl; toss to combine. Drizzle dressing over the coleslaw mixture and continue to toss until entire mixture is coated with dressing. Chill for 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, carrots, green onions and cilantro. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients. Pour over cabbage mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until chilled.

Steps:

• Prepare Salad.
• 1) slice cabbage into small bite size pieces.
• 2) Add garlic, ginger, green onions, and carrots. Toss to combine.
• Note: If you are making ahead of time, place this salad mixture in a ziploc bag or covered storage bowl. It will keep in the refrigerator for about 4 days or longer depending on how you store it.
• Prepare Crunchies.
• 1) Break the ramen noodles into pieces, but not too small that you loose the look of the noodle. Spread flat on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan.
• 2) Sprinkle over the top - Sunflower & Sesame seeds and slice almonds. Mist with Olive Oil mister to lightly coat.
• 3) Place pan under the broiler until lightly toasted. Stir gently if needed. This will happen pretty fast, so don't let them burn. Once brown remove from oven to cool.
• Note: If preparing ahead of time, once cooled place crunchies in a ziploc bag.
• Prepare Sauce.
• 1) Place all ingredients for the sauce in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens to a syrup like consistency. Keep stirring so it doesn't burn.
• Note: If preparing ahead of time you have two options. One is the make the sauce and refrigerate it in a container. Just prior to serving you can reheat the sauce in the micowave or allow it to come to room temp to toss it. OR you can just make the sauce the day of.
• Another option if you have a small family. Keep all 3 parts separate and toss just prior to serving. The salad and crunchies will keep for several days. I will slightly heat the sauce in the microwave so that it's not so thick and will toss easily. I'll just toss a bowl or two at a time and the rest will keep.

Steps:

• Rough up the scallion slices a little with your fingers so all the little layers of the scallion whites separate. Toss the coleslaw mix or both kinds of cabbage, the red onion and scallions together in a large bowl until everything is thoroughly mixed. You can make the slaw up to this point up to a day in advance as long as you keep it refrigerated. Before serving, simply bring the slaw back to room temperature, make the dressing and toss.
• Stir the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl until blended, then pour over the vegetables. Serve within 1 hour of dressing or the cabbage will get wilty and sad.

Steps:

• Very simply, you just mix the cabbage, carrots, ginger, chilli, lime zest and juice, the sesame seeds and oils with salt, then add a little sugar to taste. It will keep in the fridge for up to a couple of days.

Steps:

• Crumble ramen noodles and combine with green onions, coleslaw mix, sesame seeds and almonds.
