I finally picked our 2 cabbages from the garden yesterday.
Yes, 2 cabbages. Out of the 12 cabbage plants that I put in, only 2 stayed alive and produced a head. I guess the rest all drowned in the rain!
Since my husband and I both love coleslaw, I took one of the precious cabbages and made a batch of Ramen Noodle Cole Slaw.
It’s a summer time favorite by the more discerning palettes in our home (read: adults). None of my children will touch it willingly, yet.
Ramen Noodle Cole Slaw
Break noodles from 1 package of Ramen Noodles (any flavor) into bite size pieces in a bowl.
Add 1/2 head of shredded cabbage, 1/4 cup of chopped onion, 1/2 cup diced green or red pepper, and 1 small carrot, shredded.
Mix together 1/2 cup of cooking oil, 1/2 cup of vinegar, 1/2 cup of sugar and the Ramen noodle seasonings.
Pour the dressing over the noodles and cabbage mixture and toss together. Refrigerate at least 1-2 hours before serving.
It’s a fresh, tangy taste of summer!
