Stracciatella is also called Roman Ragged Egg Drop Chicken Soup.
This is what to eat when you just don’t know what to eat. It happens when you’ve eaten everything under the sun over the holidays or other special occasion. It’s a nice break from sweet stuff! I love it when I need something satisfying, grounding and simple, whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner
Ingredients:
6 c. low sodium chicken stock 3 eggs – whisked

Addthe eggs, cheese, parsley and nutmeg to the reserved stock; whisk until blended.
