If you are wondering what you can possibly do to make those Ramen noodle packs healthy check out our Crunchy Cabbage Salad. As I find with most salads I make, this one is easy to adapt to your family tastes. We have often served with grilled Teriyaki Chicken on the side or used shredded chicken and mixed into the salad to be served as a one course meal. Although I prefer freshly shredded cabbage and freshly cooked chicken, this is a last minute weeknight meal that can be quickly thrown together using a rotisserie chicken, bagged pre-shredded cabbage, ramen noodles and an easily made dressing as listed below.

The dressing for this salad sounds really tasty with the garlic and ginger, and I love the idea of the crunch of the Ramen noodles too.
