Oriental Salad

This is a great salad for open houses and other large gatherings of people (as since we are now officially in open-house season, i thought it would be a perfect time to share it!)

***This recipe consists of 3 parts, which NEED to stay seperate until you are ready to serve it***

Part 1:

1 stick of butter
2 packages of Dry Ramen Noodles (no seasoning packets)
1 1/2 cups of Spanish or Dry Roasted Peanuts

Melt butter in a skillet. Brown crushed noodles in melted butter until lightly golden. Add peanuts at end and brown. WATCH carefully as peanuts burn quickly!!!

Drain on a paper towel lined cookie sheet and cool completely, before transferring to a ziploc bag.

Part 2:

16 oz. shredded coleslaw mix
2 large bunches of green onions chopped.

Combine in a large covered bowl.

Part 3:

1/2 cup of sugar

1 tbsp. soy sauce

1/2 cup of vegetable oil

1/4 cup white vinegar

Shake together in a seperate, sealed ziploc bag.

***Remember, keep all parts SEPERATE until ready to serve!!!***

When you are ready to serve, dump it all together in the large bowl RIGHT BEFORE serving. The dressing wont look like enough, but it is.

This recipe is perfect for when you have to travel somewhere, I just pour my onions and slaw mix in a bowl and set the ziploc bads with nuts and dressing inside the bowl on top of the coleslaw. When I arrive, I just dump it all together :D

*For big crowds we quadruple all but the onions! Enjoy!

Someone made this for my open house and it's been in the family ever since!
