I took this salad to my office potluck today and received several positive comments. People enjoyed the mix of textures. I did add about one tablespoon of sesame oil, which made the flavour more distinctive. When I make it again, I will look for ways to reduce the fat content. -
I was looking for something fresh and green, and thought I try this. I didn't know what to expect before the first bite, but the more we ate this, the better we liked it! Nutty, crunchy and nice. I'll definitely make this again. -
This is very delicious, and unlike anything I usually make. I want to add that it's easy to crush the ramen noodles if you put them in a ziploc bag first. Then beat on them with something, like a large spoon or a mallet. -
Excellent, I used splenda instead of sugar. -
This is the best salad ever! Easy to prepare, tastes out of this world, and was gone by the end of the meal! Our friends wanted to lick the bowl!!
