Asian Noodle Salad


Ingredients

  • SALAD INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 package Linguine Noodles, Cooked, Rinsed, And Cooled- yeah I was pretty much a dork and forgot to buy Linguine noodles so I used angel hair =)
  • 1/2 head Sliced Napa Cabbage, Or More To Taste-For the cabbage I just bought the coleslaw mix at Walmart that is already chopped up. I used that instead of the napa and purple.
  • 1/2 head Sliced Purple Cabbage, Or More To Taste
  • 1/2 bag Baby Spinach, Or More To Taste
  • 1 whole Red Bell Pepper, Sliced Thin

  • 1 whole Orange Bell Pepper, Thinly Sliced
  • 1 bag Bean Sprouts (also Called Mung Bean Sprouts)- Couldn't find these so just left them out
  • Chopped Cilantro, Up To 1 Bunch, To Taste- I only added about a handful of cilantro and I am glad I did. It would have overpowered it
  • 3 whole Scallions, Sliced
  • 3 whole Cucumbers Peeled And Sliced
