Egg drop soup is a delicious Chinese soup with wispy eggs and warm salty broth. Many cultures add rice or dip bread into the soup as an appetizer. It also happens to be an easy, nutritious and light meal to whip up with a few kitchen staples- namely, eggs and bone broth! It’s a fantastic way to get in some quick nutrients, and a great back-up meal for if you’re feeling sick and need something quick that will not gross you out but will also nourish you.
Using bone broth for this recipe is not only for the taste, but also for the nutrient density. If you don’t fancy bone broth, you can always use beef, veggie, or chicken broth. While it may have less protein, it will still be delicious! Pro tip: homemade broth is always your best bet.
