Asian Ramen Salad

Notes: This was good, I did have it for leftovers many days. Naomi asked for some every time she saw me eating it. Pretty basic and similar to what Mom made growing up.

RECIPE NOTES

To crush ramen, place ramen block into a Ziploc bag and using a rolling pin, gently crush the ramen into smaller pieces.

I personally didn't add the seasoning packets because I don't like the MSG/sodium content in ramen seasoning packets. However, I know this is a popular recipe and there are MANY variations of it. So, it's all up to preference on whether or not you want to add the seasoning packets, or anything else to this salad! :)
