Not only is this salad delicious, but it's also packed with nutrients. Cabbage is a great source of fiber, vitamin C, and vitamin K, while mandarin oranges are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. The almonds add a healthy dose of protein and healthy fats, making this salad a well-rounded and nutritious meal.


This salad is also highly customizable. Feel free to add your favorite vegetables, such as broccoli or snow peas, or swap out the almonds for cashews or peanuts. You can also adjust the sweetness or tanginess of the dressing to suit your taste preferences.


If you plan to make this salad beforehand, wait until the day of serving to add the ramen noodles. They will begin to lose their crunchy texture after a day or two. Bring this along to cookouts, parties, or make for a week of healthy lunches!
