I tried to eat a scrambled egg the other morning - took tiny bites and chewed until there wasn't anything to chew - and it still gave me that stuck feeling ... so a friend suggested egg drop Soup.

I made it last night and it was delicious - and VERY EASY. Here's the recipe I used

3 Cans reduced sodium chicken broth

3 stalks of celery (chopped)

1 pkg. soft tofu (drained; room temp)

4 eggs (whipped)

I put the broth in a pan, added the celery and cut the tofu up into tiny squares. Brought all of that to a boil for 10 minutes ... turned off the heat and then swirled in the eggs to make "ribbons". I didnt finish it until about 11:30 last night, so didn't taste it. I took it for lunch today and it was VERY GOOD. I have enough for probably 5 more meals, so if you don't want that much left over, reduce recipe accordingly.

Thank you Alena, glad you and your family enjoyed it. I thought it was pretty tasty.

From what I read the jury is still "out" on whether or not soy can cause problems in people with thyroid disease. It may cause goiter in some people, but like I say, there is still ambivalent research on the issue. Until it is clear, I'm not doing soy since I have hypothyroidism already. If you have a personal history of breast cancer that could be another reason to avoid soy until more research clarifies whether or not it negatively affects estrogen-receptive cells.

I asked my OB/GYN about the effects of soy and he said if I ate an all soy diet I might have to be concerned, but if I have it every now and again there's nothing to worry about.

I don't know why I didn't read this before, but it sounds easy enough to make and I'm on a "soup" kick right now...... gonna give it a whirl!

It is VERY easy to make and tastes good too!

I bought everything to make this soup but my little town does not have soft tofu...only firm and extra firm. Should I use that or wait until I go to another town that has the soft?

Deb, I don't think it matters - it's all so soft and if you cut it small enough it shouldn't make any difference. (Sorry for the delay in responding)
