Directions

Step 1

Shred the green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the thinly sliced green onions to the bowl.

Step 3

In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sliced almonds, crushed ramen noodles, and sesame seeds until golden and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool.

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, rice vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables and toss to coat evenly.

Step 6

Just before serving, fold in the toasted almond, ramen noodle, and sesame seed mixture to retain their crunch.

Step 7

Serve immediately as a side dish or chilled for a cooler option.
