A fellow parent on my daughters' softball team brought this salad to a team picnic - the girls, all in their mid-teens, loved it. If I take it somewhere I make it ahead by mixing the dressing ingredients in a jar, and keeping the noodles separate in a plastic bag, which allows me to toss all the ingredients right before serving and keeps the salad from getting soggy.
Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package coleslaw mix
1 (12 -16 ounce) package spinach
8 scallions, thinly sliced
2 (3 ounce) packages ramen noodles (do not use flavor pack)
8 tablespoons slivered almonds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon margarine
3/4 cup salad oil
1 teaspoon accent seasoning
2 teaspoons mrs. dash table blend seasoning
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons rice vinegar
Directions:
1. Mix spinach, coleslaw and scallions. Set aside.
2. Saute the almonds in the margarine - when almost brownd, add sesame seeds until brown. When cool, add to spinach mixture.
3. Refrigerate spinach mixture until ready to serve.
4. Mix together salad oil, Accent, Mrs. Dash, pepper, sugar and rice vinegar. Refrigerate.
5. At time of serving, crush the 2 packages of Ramen noodles and add to spinach mixture. Pour salad dressing over spinach mixture, mix and serve.
