Cook's Notes

Adjust all measurements to your family's taste. You can use any combination of nuts and seeds that you have. You can even try adding craisins (dried and sweetened cranberries - spectacular!). Any combination of seeds, nuts or dried fruit that you have should total about 1 C or more. Mix with veggies, chicken and Ramen noodles. *Sesame oil and balsamic vinegar are the KEY ingredients to this tangy salad.
