East Meets West Stacked Strawberry Ramen Salad
 
 
Ingredients
Dressing
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Tamari
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1/4 tsp Chinese Five-Spice powder
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 clove garlic crushed
Salad
  • 1/2 package coleslaw blend (pkg green, red cabbage with carrot julienne)
  • 2-3 generous handfuls baby spinach
  • 1 cup strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup toasted almonds
  • 1/2 package dried ramen, broken (Ichi Ban)
  • 2 green onions, chopped (optional)
Instructions
  1. In a small measuring cup whisk together the dressing ingredients from rice vinegar to the clove of garlic. Pour into a pretty salad dressing jar.
  2. In a salad bowl, toss the coleslaw with the baby spinach together, then stack or layer the remaining ingredients, in order, on top of the coleslaw and spinach mixture. Quantities of the salad ingredients can be adjusted for the number of people you are serving.
  3. Serve with the dressing on the side and drizzle over just after plating. This keeps the ramen noodles from becoming soggy.
