This Sesame Ramen Slaw only takes a few minutes to whip up, especially if you have a food processor to do your grating.

But, it should sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors blend.

Ingredients for Sesame Ramen Slaw

• cabbage (usually green, but purple could be pretty)
• carrots
• green onions
• slivered almonds
• chicken-flavor ramen noodles
• sesame oil
• vegetable oil
• rice vinegar or cider vinegar
• reduced-sodium soy sauce
• honey or sugar

I happened to have a large kohlrabi in the fridge the other day and decided to swap it for the cabbage in this recipe. It gave this a nice extra crunch, but cabbage is equally delicious.
