Make ramen noodle salad at your next potluck for a totally unique and addictive side dish.

It only takes a few minutes to throw it together, and you’ll have everyone asking for the recipe. The best part is you don’t have to boil the noodles because they soak in the dressing and become soft over time.

Chrissy Teigen calls her version dump and done ramen noodle salad cookbook from her cookbook Cravings. You literally dump in some easy ingredients and it’s done. I love this easy idea and have adapted mine based on her recipe with some minor adjustments.

I prefer traditional coleslaw mix with added chopped broccoli. We like green onion instead of red onion, and almonds instead of sunflower seeds. Frozen veggies make this super easy, and the dressing is a cinch to whisk up!

Tips for making ramen noodle salad:

  • This is a great make-ahead salad idea! The noodles need time to soak up the dressing and soften. For more of an al dente texture, then letting the mixture sit for about three hours in the fridge should do it. You may even want to let your ramen noodle salad sit overnight if you’d prefer a softer texture. The flavors will have a little more time to blend together, and you’ll still get a nice crunch from the almonds.
  • If you’d like to use a healthier version of the pre-packaged seasoning blend, try substituting either organic ramen or low sodium ramen.
  • I love how customizable this recipe is! It’s so easy to substitute your favorite slaw mix or vegetables to suit your family’s taste preferences.
  • This recipe makes an inexpensive meatless side dish, but you could also add the meat from a rotisserie chicken to make it a super satisfying, protein-rich main course.
