Easy and yummy. Perfect for sick tummies.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

14 ounces chicken broth, 1 can
2 eggs
1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)
salt (optional) or onion salt (optional)
1 green onion, chopped

Directions

1
Heat broth in saucepan to boiling.
2
Meanwhile, scramble eggs well. You can add the cornstarch to help keep the eggs in larger lumps in the soup.
3
Remove pan from heat once broth is boiling.
4
GENTLY stir in eggs. The more you stir the smaller the egg 'drops' will be.
5
Taste. Add salt if desired. Onion salt is really yummy here!
6
Garnish with chopped green onion.
7
NOTE: for sick tummies try adding a little lemon juice and leave out the salt and onion. This was the ONLY thing my Daddy could eat when going through chemo.

Wow! What a wonderful soup. I doubled the recipe and it still went in a matter of minutes. I never thought I could pull off such an authentic tasting Chinese food. For a second I thought I was in my favorite Chinese restaurant. Thanks so much for the AMAZING recipe!

LOVED it! I added the ginger as another recommeded, and served it with Easy cheese scones - in a hurry to my little sickies at home. Very soothing!

This is exactly the way I make my egg drop soup, Mama...Excellent stuff! I play "Chinese Buffet" with my friends sometimes when we have dinner parties and there's never a drop left, but how easy is it when you crave it? I mean..who needs leftovers. We prepare all of our favorite foods from the Chinese buffet, including those little fried biscuits! I'm glad you posted so I didn't have to!
