This is one of my favorite salad recipes passed on to me from my friend Pam D. A wonderful light and crunchy salad. Great with seared Ahi tuna.
Ingredients
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Salad

- 1 large head bok choy, chopped
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- ½ cup sunflower seed kernels

Step 1
Mix romaine lettuce and bok choy in a large bowl; add almonds and sunflower seed kernels. Sprinkle crumbled ramen noodles over the lettuce mixture; add Mandarin oranges and toss.
