Bok Choy Ramen Noodle Salad
"Great side dish for a BBQ or lunch buffet. This was my Mom's neighbor's recipe and I got the same recipe from my friend and neighbor (small world). The ramen noodles add and nice crunch and this is very simple to prepare. You can half the ingredients for a smaller salad and you can also use romaine lettuce instead of bok choy if you like. My friend, Alisa, adds kidney beans to the salad."

Great recipe! I've made this about five or six times. I eventually went to buying romaine instead of bok choy. Here in the midwest bok choy has the price of gold! But if you can swing it, it's definitely worth it! Thanks for a great receipe! -
Delicious! I found that it is even better if you use sesame seeds instead of sunflower seeds. It's great fresh, but gets soggy over time, so if you want some for leftovers, it's best to keep the dressing seperate. I also found that using 5 heads of baby bok choy was better than 1 head of regular. More crisp.

<p>I've collected recipes since I was a teen. After all these years I'm trying to get all my index cards and clippings, that still sound interesting to me, posted here so that I can find them and eventually make them! <br /> <br />I've posted some of my Mom's recipes. I regret not having paid more attention to my Grandmothers' cooking. They made some dishes that I miss and there were/are no recipes for them. <br /> <br />I have a wonderful DH and 2 wonderful sons. They are thrilled that I found this site since they directly benefit from it! Before finding 'Zaar, I was less of a cook and more of a recipe collector but now I try many more things and we're having more fun in the kitchen (at least I am)! <br /> <br />Thanks for all your ratings, comments and help in the forums AND for posting so many great recipes. You've enhanced my cooking skills and expanded my horizons! I've learned so much. <br /> <br />For fun, I also like to read fiction, travel, see movies and shows, shop (and I love to browse thrift shops and rummage/garage sales for cookbooks, etc.). <br /> <br />The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star Brillat-Savarin</p>
