Crunchy Asian Broccoli Slaw

I have never really been a fan of the traditional, creamy coleslaw recipes. Years ago, my neighbors and I had a huge potluck-style cookout and someone brought a broccoli slaw. I loved it so much that I begged for her recipe until she finally gave it to me. I've made several changes to her original recipe and it's now one of my favorite cookout side dishes! It's fresh and light with lots of flavor and crunch! Enjoy!

Crunchy Asian Broccoli Slaw


What You'll Need:

  • 2 packages of Broccoli Slaw
  • 1 small Red Onion, chopped (approx. 1 cup)
  • Equal Parts: Sugar, Oil and Vinegar (1/4-1/2 cup each)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • Dash of Cayenne Pepper
  • Dash of Soy Sauce
  • 2 packages of Ramen Noodles
    (I choose the flavor that will compliment whatever meat we're having. I prefer to use either Chicken or Beef flavor because they seem to taste best. I've even used one of each before and it still tasted delish!)
  • 1/2 cup Slivered Almonds

Slow Cooked Baby Back Ribs

This is by far one of my favorite summertime recipes. Everyone that tries them loves these ribs! The meat is so tender that it falls off the bone and melts in your mouth! I've been making them this way for years and the recipe has been requested by many, so I am finally getting it on the blog. Enjoy!
