Tips

I have always love the traditional Asian slaw made with the ramen noodle packet but I hate the MSG in that little packet and I figured I could make a better tasting dressing with real ingredients. Boy was I right. You can drop the calorie count a lot by leaving them off. You also don't have to use Sesame Oil but it tastes so much better with it.


Directions

Finely chop all the cabbage and carrots and place in a large bowl. I use a food processor. Add the chopped cilantro, onions and raisins.

Mix all the liquid into a small dish along with the brown sugar. Blend like mad until well combined. Pour over cabbage mixture and store in fridge until ready to serve.

Toast the ramen noodles and peanuts in a skillet until they start to brown. Set aside to cool. These are an optional garnish.

Serving Size: Makes about 6-7, 1 cup servings.
