1. Remove the noodles from their packaging and toss the flavor packet that comes inside because it contains msg.

2. Place the noodles in a plastic bag and crush them up.

3. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

4. Add the crushed noodles to the skillet, stirring until they are golden brown. They might puff up a bit. Takes about 5-10 minutes, then set aside.

5. Whisk together the oil, vinegar, sweetener, and spices. I like to dump them all into a jar and shake it up, to make things easier.

6. Toss the broccoli slaw into a large bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt, massage with your hands until it becomes a little moist (about 5 minutes).

7. Pour dressing over broccoli slaw, and stir to coat thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste if desired.

8. Top with the nuts/seeds and the toasted noodles.

9. Garnish with green onions, if desired.

10. Serve immediately. But, this is also a salad that is almost even better the next day. It's one of my all-time favorites!
