For me, this Ramen Cabbage Salad is tastier than regular coleslaw. I used rice vinegar in the dressing which was delicious. I prefer it the next day or at least after an hour of letting it marinade in the refrigerator for an hour. My five year old was able to help make it and enjoyed eating it too.

Our family loved this recipe!  It tasted great the next day too.  Super quick and flexible, some wanted chicken, some didn't.  And we served it with rice.

I've been making this recipe for years. A great way to get vegetables into my families' diet. I usually add sesame or sunglower seeds.

This is very easy to make and it is tasty.  I have found that kids really enjoy it too.

Napa cabbage, sometimes called "Chinese cabbage," would be good in this, too!
