This Asian Salad is filled with a vibrant fusion of fresh cabbage, crunchy carrots, and a refreshing cilantro lime vinaigrette! Elevate your meal with this colorful delight for the perfect healthy lunch or side dish for summer barbecues, picnics and potlucks.
In a large bowl, combine the two cabbage and grated carrots.
Pour the desired amount of dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Place in the fridge for about 10-20 minutes for flavors to meld.
Right before serving, fold in green onions, cilantro and almonds. If adding the ramen noodles, break the noodles apart slightly, or to desired size and discard the seasoning packet. Add them to the salad along with any additional toppings you desire, such as mint leaves or toasted sesame seeds.

How to store
While this slaw is best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a day or two.
If making ahead, store the dressing and the salad ingredients in separate resealable containers in the fridge up to 2 days ahead. Combine dressing on the day of serving.
Avoid freezing, as the vegetables may lose their texture and become watery when thawed.
