Ingredients
  

Salad

  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 package ramen noodles (discard seasoning packet)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 bunch bok choy, washed and chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 4 scallions (green onions), chopped

Salad Dressing

  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sesame oil (can substitute canola or olive oil)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Crush ramen noodles while still in a bag. I use a rolling pin or the bottom of a glass jar to break them into small pieces.
  • (Optional): Add the crushed ramen noodles and almonds to a skillet with little bit of olive oil. Heat them until toasted and brown - about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the sesame seeds in the last few minutes of cooking.
  • In a medium bowl, combine salad ingredients.
  • For the salad dressing, add all the ingredients to a mason jar, cover it tightly with the lid and shake well.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. (You may not want to use all the dressing - you can save it in the refrigerator for about 1 week).
  • Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
