My daughter gave me the recipe for this delightful salad. The sweet dressing nicely coats a crisp blend of broccoli slaw mix, carrots, onions, almonds and sunflower kernels. Crushed ramen noodles provide even more crunch. It's a smash hit wherever I take it. -Dora Mae Clapsaddle, Kensington, Ohio

A favorite at our house, but I like to make it for company so there's a better chance of it all getting eaten -- makes a lot!!! Leftovers not so good because the noodles get soggy overnight. If you make this ahead, don't add the noodles until right before serving, so they'll still be crisp. I cut the oil to 1/4 or 1/8 cup and it's fine that way. Raspberry vinegar also good, as is not toasting the almonds and sunflower seeds.

This salad is always a hit with family and friends! It's delicious! I omit the olives since our family doesn't like them. I usually don't toast the sunflower kernels or almonds.

My family loved it! My son who hates broccoli had several helpings. I had to use balsamic because I was out of cider vinegar; it tasted great with it. I cut the recipe in half and still had tons, but it all got eaten within a day.

I have made this salad numerous times over the past few years and every time it's been met with rave reviews. The only thing I change about it is that I omit the olives because I don't care for olives. Great salad, always a winner!

This is a great tasting crunchy salad. I really love it. Instead of making the dressing, I used a bottle of Italian dressing, added the ramen seasoning and shook well before adding to the salad. Great recipe.

Its a great salad, but the dressing was not good. I made the salad with soya sauce, canola oil and some of the seasoning from the ramen package. I've made it twice in a week

I've made this recipe several times. Usually I use roasted sunflower seeds and skip the almonds to save on time.
