    Arrange the clean, dry Nappa cabbage in a pretty bowl. Add 1/3 cup of the Sesame Balsamic dressing to the cabbage. Stir until the cabbage is fully coated in the dressing. If the salad looks dry, add more dressing to taste. Sprinkle the slivered almonds over the slaw. Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the slaw. Use your hands to break up the dry Ramen noodles and then sprinkle them over the slaw.
