Egg Flower Soup

So what can you make when you have a ton of eggs and a few stalks of celery that you really need to use up? Egg drop soup! Or, egg flower soup, whatever. XP

 

Akkk. Slight egg problem...

Egg Flower Soup

BOIL 4 cups of chicken broth

ADD salt to taste/help boil

REMOVE from heat

POUR in 2 beaten eggs from high up

STIR in one direction for a minute

 

Egg flower soup!

The recipe we found called for green onion. While I could see how that would taste yummy, we didn't have any. What we did have, however, was a LOT of celery. So, while it was boiling, we added two chopped stalks of celery.

What we also didn't have was chicken broth. We had 3 cubes of stock and a bunch of beef.....so we used 3 cubes of chicken and on of beef and boiled until dissolved. Perhaps because we used the cubes, I should not have added more salt. Or, perhaps I just used too much salt. The celery helped use some of it up, but it would have definitely tasted better without all that salt. XP

All in all, it turned out pretty yummy, though! We also made some ants-on-a-log to use up more of the celery and give us a break from the salty soup.

Ants-On-A-Log

CUT celery into 2-3 inch pieces

FILL the valley with peanut butter (this is the "log")

PLACE raisins on top in the peanut butter (the "ants")

EAT yummy ridiculous healthy snack that uses celery!

  

Yummy ants-on-a-log!
