Chinese Chicken Salad

Okay, I have a personal goal to try making ONE new recipe every month. Last Friday I decided to bring one of my favorites that my mom makes to a baby shower. Big success, everyone loved it. CAUTION: This is girl food! My dad, brother and husband do not like this salad. Mark my words; I will never serve this salad to another man in fear of wasting a delicious bite on ungrateful taste buds. This recipe is easy and delicious!!!

Chinese Chicken Salad - RECIPE
Shred 1 head of cabbage, combine with 1-2 chopped onions, or 1-2 T Grated or ¼ chopped dry onion. Add 2 cups shredded chicken breasts (may use more chicken if you like). Set aside.
Brown in saucepan… in ½ cube margarine:
- 3 pkg top ramen noodles (crumbled finely)
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- 2 T sesame seeds

- ½ cup Salad Oil (canola)

Mmmmmm. . . I love that salad, but yours looks better than mine! I think you are better at shredding cabbage and chicken than I am. Looks so good right now!
