Instructions
- In a mason jar with a tight fitting lid combine the olive oil, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Shake the dressing well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes
- Break up the noodles right in the package using your hands or the heavy end of a table knife or spoon.
- For extra crunch and flavor toast the almond slivers or sliced almonds before adding them to the salad. It really adds great flavor to the salad.

- Napa cabbage can be substituted for the green cabbage just slice it thin.
- Try adding apples, red bell peppers, mandarin oranges, or pineapple.
- Make it a main dish by adding chicken, shrimp, salmon, or steak.
- Mix the honey garlic dressing up to 48 hours in advance. Store in the refrigerator in a mason jar. Remove from the fridge 40 minutes prior to drizzling on the salad. Shake well before combining with the salad.
- You can prepare this salad up to 24 hours in advance but keep in mind that the noodles will soften.
