My family really loved this soup. I needed something else to go with my "chinese type" meal and this fit the bill perfectly. This is an easy soup to make and I will make this again and again. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Easy and good. so much so that I won't pay another $2 for it when I have takeout. Its a lot of egg, maybe a little too much.

We all loved this. I got my broth by cooking 3 boneless chicken breasts with about a cup each of celery, onion, and later carrots, then adding the chicken because we like meat, but this was a great basic recipe. Thanks Chippie!

Yummy, easy to make Egg Drop Soup. My DH who loves egg drop soup said this is VERY VERY good. I made it just as stated using canned chicken broth. Thank you very much for posting this easy to make recipe.
