Keto Egg Drop Soup
My love for soup knows no boundaries, so, from hearty chilis to simple soups, like this Keto Egg Drop Soup, I'm a fan! This recipe in particular takes less than 10 minutes to make, is filling and has rich flavors of ginger, soy and sesame oil. You're guaranteed to have all the ingredients in this recipe on hand at any given moment and it's great for a quick meal, when you're sick or when you're craving something Asian!
The Easiest Homemade Egg Drop Soup!
When I hear the word easy I think in terms of amount of ingredients, steps and how long it will take me in total to make before I can devour. And, this recipe is definitely high up on the easy scale! It's seven total ingredients, two of which are optional, the only steps required are whisking together, bringing to a boil, adding in the eggs and eating, and finally it takes 10 minutes or less to make. Now, if that's not easy on your scale I'm not sure what is! Plus, when it's homemade you just feel so much better about putting it into your body knowing exactly what went into it.
My Favorite Low Carb Soups
I have always been a soup person and nothing has changed that since starting keto. I'm also someone who likes anything even remotely soup like, such as chilis and stews. They are all perfect meals not only for the easy one pot and clean up aspects, but because they are always filling and satisfying, plus all the fun toppings! I always go with sour cream and chives for my toppings. My favorite soup and soup-like recipes we have on our blog are our broccoli and cheese soup, keto chili with bacon, and of course, our low carb beef stew!
