Cabbage Ramen

Cabbage and Ramen Salad
This is one of my top 5 favorite foods. I’ve been making it since I was about 12. I ate this at least 3 times a week during college. I love dry ramen noodles and I love cabbage. This cheap, easy, healthy recipe hits the spot on a hot summer day, or any day that you need dinner in 10 minutes.
