A nice alternative to the usual summer grill accompaniments of potato or macaroni salad with the added benefit of no mayo! Tasty with a surprising crunch. Very addictive.

3 (3 ounce) packages package ramen noodles (flavor packet saved for another use) broken into pieces

½ cup slivered almonds
¼ cup butter, melted
½ cup white sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup red wine vinegar
