I make this frequently during the summer. Cyndi

1 head cabbage, chopped
2 ounces sesame seeds (optional)
2 packages uncooked Top Ramen noodles
16 oz package of California Blend Frozen Vegetables, thawed (optional)
8 green onions, chopped
2 ounces slivered/sliced almonds
Dressing (recipe follows)

Place sesame seeds and almonds in a frying pan with about 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Toast over low heat until slightly brown. Set aside to cool. Mix together cabbage, green onions, sesame seeds and almond mixture. Break up noodles into small pieces with hands or rolling pin.

Dressing

4 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon black pepper
6 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup salad oil
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds (optional)

Mix dressing ingredients together. If you used a large head of cabbage, you may need to double the recipe. Mix broken noodles and dressing into cabbage mixture 30 minutes before serving.
