Chinese Chicken Salad

Ingredients:

1 head Cabbage
4 things of green onions
1 small pkg. sliced almonds
1 pkg. raman noodles--it doesn't matter what flavor
chicken--cooked and cut up ---I just get the pkg. of sliced chicken breast
Rice Vinegar
sugar
vegetable oil



Directions:

Cut cabbage up into bite size pieces. (Don't use the colesalw mix!) Cut up green onions. In a large bowl, put cabbage, green onions, almonds, and chicken. Take the flavor pouch out of the raman noodles. Break the noodles up with your hands until they aren't one big blob anymore! Add to the bowl.

Dressing:

4 TBSP. sugar
1/2 cup oil
4 TBSP. Rice vinegar.

Drizzle all over salad. Put a lid on the salad and mix it by shaking the bowl around. Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes so the dressing can mix in. You may need to add a tad more vinegar. The sugar should dissolve completly.
