Ingredients

• 6 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
• 2 large eggs
• 1 egg whites
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup baby spinach (optional, for added nutrients)
• 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized pot, bring the low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Step 2

While the broth is heating, whisk together the eggs, egg white, grated Parmesan cheese, ground nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until well combined.

Step 3

Once the broth is simmering, reduce the heat to low to maintain a gentle simmer. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the broth in a thin stream while continuously stirring with a fork or whisk. This will create the signature delicate egg ribbons.

Step 4

If using baby spinach, stir it into the soup and let it wilt for about 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 6

Serve the soup immediately, garnished with an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese if desired.
