Recipe Notes

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin may be used in place of roasted pumpkin.
  • regular ramen or rice ramen noodles may be used.
  • chicken stock may be used, but broth will not be vegetarian/vegan.
  • a soft boiled egg may be used, if not concerned about vegan.
  • Ramen can be topped with favorite toppings.  Sauteed Shiitake mushrooms are really good.  Create your own style and taste with your toppings.
