This is one of the simplest soups there is. But it is so comforting. I like that this one doesn't taste as thick and slimey. Why order from a Chinese Restaurant when you can do it quicker and better at home?

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

6 cups chicken broth
1/2 tablespoon grated fresh ginger or 1 teaspoon powdered ginger
3 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon scallion, finely sliced

Directions

1
Bring broth and ginger to a boil.
2
Whisk in beaten eggs. Cook for 1-2 more minutes.
3
Add scallions, stir.
4
Serve steaming hot.
5
You could add soy sauce to taste at the table.
6
You could add finely sliced celery and grated carrots just before the eggs.That way you get some veggies inches Good idea with picky children.

This is sooo easy and satisfying! I made as directed, making one serving out of a third of the recipe. Instead of canned chicken noodle soup, I'm thinking this will be my under-the-weather-pick-me-up soup; I'll just add some Ramen noodles at the beginning. Thanks, *Bellinda*! Made for Veggie Recipe Swap.

Delicious! I made it with Kittencal's Best Chicken Stock/Broth (Crock Pot Option) and served it with Fried Rice. Great dinner!

I am needing to find allergy free recipes (not dairy, wheat, lots more) for my 15 yo. This was perfect, except I only put onions on mine, as kids wouldn't like it and she's allergic to onions. Very easy to make and I added some browned cubes of chicken that I added a little curry powder to. Served with your Tropical Rice and it was a meal everyone loved (hard to come by lately). Made for V@gan Swap 8-09.

Mmmmm, delicious! I made this soup with a chicken stir fry, and fried rice. The perfect compliment to the meal. My husband said it was better than any Egg Drop Soup he's had in a restaurant! I added celery and a little salt and pepper, too. Enjoy!
