Momma Cuisine  |   I’m not much of a salad-eating gal, but love a hearty and delicious meal that can also be light. So, I created salad recipes that even I would love!

This salad recipe for Ramen Chopped Salad is not your typical Asian-style salad. I took ramen noodles and tossed it with chopped Napa cabbage, dressed in homemade sweet miso vinaigrette, topped with an array of lightly sauteed Asian vegetables and crunchy fried tofu.

I think the best salad recipes have a mixture of salty and sweet flavors with tender and crunchy textures. It makes it fun to eat and delicious to eat.

Once all the ingredients are prepped, drizzle the sweet miso vinaigrette on the ramen and lightly toss. Arrange the vegetables, roasted squash and fried tofu and serve.

Other topping ideas:

• Chopped seaweed
• Toasted sesame seeds
