This recipe will keep only fair overnight, as the noodles become mushy. The noodles can be added at the last minute.

Note: Because of the lack of complete reporting on nutrition information for ramen noodles I am not able to give complete information on some nutrients in this recipe.

Combine the vinegar, sugar, honey, oil and 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce in a sauce pan. Place over medium-high heat and whisk while bringing to a boil. When the dressing boils, remove it from the heat immediately. Chill for at least 3 hours.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and toss the sesame seeds, almonds and crushed ramen for one minute. Reduce heat to medium and continue to toss for about 5 minutes, watching carefully so as not to burn the mixture. When the ingredients are slightly browned, remove them to a plate and let cool.

Slice the napa cabbage and the green onions very thin and toss together in a large mixing bowl. Add the ramen mixture and the dressing and toss until well coated.
