This delicious salad recipe came from a friend of my mom’s. I make Barbara’s salad often in the summer and have shared the recipe many times. I shared this salad at the Buckeye Bash – June 2012

Ingredients
- ½ cup canola oil
- ½ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 (3 ounce) packages chicken-flavored ramen noodles, crushed, seasoning packets reserved
- 1 (12 ounce) package broccoli coleslaw mix
- 1 bunch green onions, sliced
- 1 cup roasted cashews
- ¼ cup roasted sunflower seed kernels
Steps
- Whisk canola oil, sugar, water, balsamic vinegar, and seasoning packets from ramen noodles in a bowl until thoroughly combined and sugar and seasoning packets have dissolved.
