I made ramen from scratch by copying a local chinese restaurant. The owner had told me that he makes the broth from pork bones with onions and garlic and just boils it for a long time. So, I went to the new Vietnamese grocery store nearby, and was able to get a bag of pork bones--with some meat on them-- for .99 per lb. Boiled them slowly with a couple yellow onions and a bunch of garlic. Strained the broth and gave the bones to the dogs. So, it's bone broth. Then when I made the dinner, I only used a half of a noodle portion for myself, so that was only 110 calories. Then added some quickly stir-fried cabbage, shredded carrots (not cooked), some roasted corn, green onions, cilantro,5 ounces of marinated, barbecued chicken breast diced, and then some sweet Chinese chili oil for flavor. It turned out pretty good.

Gorgeous! I can't eat it on Keto but it looks like a lovely meal for someone who tolerates pasta. :)

Oh, pasta is a rare thing for me, Bluecoaster! Maybe once a month I breakdown and have ramen, but I only have 1/2 the noodles...even in the restaurant. The first time I asked to only have 1/2 the usual amount of noodles, the young lady behind the counter told me I couldn't have 1/2 because they came in a package. :) Haha! I told her that it was ok if they threw half of the package away.

I wonder if the soup is just as good without the noodles. Looks like it might be. :)

Without noodles I would probably add more veggies. But home made bone broth is the best! Now you have me thinking about it, Bluecoaster, I might have to have broth with veggies and chicken for lunch tomorrow. Thanks!

FifiB our vet told us no pork or pork bones for our dogs. Are you sure you should be giving them to yours? 😯
