Japanese Cabbage Salad

Japanese Cabbage Salad is fresh, light, and a little bit crunchy for the perfect picnic, side, or lunch salad. Almonds give a great crunchy texture to every bite. Using the chicken seasoning package from the noodles in the dressing provides a wonderfully savory and salty addition to a mound of cabbage. Have it as a meal by adding grilled or rotisserie chicken. It’s a great lunch too!

Author's Notes

Slivered almonds are preferred as they offer the best crunch and size.

To toast the almonds preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Arrange almonds in a single layer on a pie plate or other shallow baking tray. Toast for 8-10 minutes until just starting to turn golden.

Easily turn this salad into lunch by topping it with cooked chicken.

The salad can be made up to 2 hours in advance, tossing lightly just before serving.
