Chinese Coleslaw

Great summer salad. You can easily make this into a meal by adding a Roasted Chicken (skinned and shredded) from the deli.

1 pkg instant ramen soup - oriental flavor
1 Tbsp butter
16 oz bag coleslaw mix or 1 bag broccoli slaw mix
1 bunch green onions
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup slivered almonds

dressing:
1/4 cup each vegetable oil and toasted sesame oil
3 Tbsp each sugar and balsamic vinegar
seasoning pkt from ramen soup

Break apart noodles from soup pkg - be careful not to grind them with hands. In small frying pan, melt butter - add noodles and cook, stirring until browned. Remove-set aside. Add sunflower seeds and almonds to pan. Cook stirring until lightly browned. Set aside. Add green onions to pan. Cook until limp.

Combine all dressing ingredients and stir (or shake). In a serving bowl combine all salad ingredients. Add dressing just before serving and toss.
