Can you add cooked ground pork? If so, should you season the pork while cooking or not?

Ive been looking for noodles to add to salads. I thought ramen noodles would have to be cooked first. So this is great. does anyone no of any other packages of 'just dry noodles' to add to salads. thanks

Had this salad at a party this summer and loved it, but the hostess said "I don't like to give out my recipes. So many people are not as well trained in culinary arts as I am!". Well, I got the recipe anyway and this is better than hers! She didn't use any sunflower seeds! Thank you for sharing your recipe! Followed your recipe exactly! Mickie

Thank You very much for a nice salad recipe! Its been a hit at every social gathering this summer! Its a good twist on a cold salad. Stick to the Oriental flavor Ramen Noodles it is perfect, I cant see another flavor going well with this recipe. Also, let it sit at least an hour before consumption, but no longer than three days. After three days the ramen noodles and cabbage become soggy.Things I did differently: I added broccoli & green onions. I substituted the sunflower seeds for sliced almonds (mmmm!). I also used 2 packets of ramen noodles per 14oz bag of cabbage. I think everyone should skip the sugar and use the 6 packets of splenda like mentioned. I also added fresh ground peppercorns into the salad.

Terrific salad! The second time around I toasted the ramen noodles, sesame seeds and added slivered almonds (toasting was key to the taste). I used soy sauce and olive oil, sugar and seasoning in the ramen noodles. Halfway through the BBQ there was nothing left and my guests requested your recipe! Thanks for posting this!!

I've made this for years. I normally use cashews instead of the ramen noodle. The noodle get mushy fairly fast. Also add chicken the make it a main dish.

This was delicious!! I made this for our Christmas Eve party and it was so good! This is such an affordable, easy, tasty recipe ( few and far between!). My only changes were I added a little more sugar and more vinegar only because I like strong dressings. Thanks for a recipe I will make again and again!

LOVE this recipe. I too add toasted almonds instead of the sunflower seeds and used 1/4 cup oil instead of 1/2 cup.

<p>I was born and raised in Abilene, KS....the same small town that Dwight D. Eisenhower was raised in. After moving around a lot for 20 years, my family and I now live within 10 miles of Abilene. <br /><br />My dear husband and I just celebrated our 39th year anniversary in October 2015. I have two great children and 5 beautiful grandchildren, ages 14, 12, 10, 5 and 4. They have given me so many precious moments to hold dear to my heart and so many grey hairs...and I wouldn't trade these days for anything. They are my everything. <br /><br />I love to cook and try new recipes. I stumbled onto recipezaar a few years ago and it is now the only place I go looking for recipes. I love the wide variety of recipes and usually anything I search for, will provide me with many wonderful recipes to choose from. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1535/cheesesticker.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/EditBeforeandAfterSTICKER.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/personal/FRENCH-foodfun.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/derf16/food%20photography%20series/MuffinLovesticker.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Kaffee-sticker.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/PastastickerJPEG.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Flourpowersticker.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/SoupsandsaladSTICKER.jpg" alt="" /></p>
