Expert Tips

To toast almonds, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until almonds begin to brown, then stirring constantly until they are light brown.

This salad is delicious served with grilled chicken, burgers or pork.

I have made this recipe as stated, but much prefer it with a couple of moderations. I completely omit the ramen noodles and seasoning because it adds WAY too much sodium. I use all other dressing ingredients given and just add some garlic powder and ginger to taste. Everything else I do the same, but leave off the almonds because of finicky people in my house. Great recipe I make over and over again! I also agree that the flavor is even better the second day.

I have been making this salad for years now. It is my niece's favorite dish and always requested at all bbq's...she is graduating so I am printing her a copy of the recipe and framing it for her to take to college...BTW it is better the 2nd day after the flavors have had time to mingle!

I love this salad. My husband said this is one of the best salads he's tasted. I immediately went back to the store to get more ingredients to make it again. And will make it alone to eat for lunch. The tang/flavor of the dressing is perfect. I used sugar snap peas instead of pea pods. Definitely a new favorite.
