Healing Paleo Egg Drop Soup

 

      I love having Egg Drop and Miso soups, but my body can't handle the soy that are hidden in most recipes.  I found a few different recipes around the web, but still could not find the right combination that taste great.  This soup is kinda a combination of the two.  Hope you enjoy.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon grass fed butter or coconut oil
• 2 Tbsp. onion powder
• 1 tsp. celery salt or 1 stalk pureed celery
• 8 cups bone broth (see link to recipe below)
• 1 Tbsp. coconut aminos
• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
• 8-10 eggs (we used 10 b/c we like thicker/chunkier soup), well beaten
• 1 sheet of seaweed tore into small bits (you can use more or less depending on your preference, I used an entire snack size pack)
• 1/2 tsp. Pink Himalayan salt (may need more if you use puree)
• 1 tsp. fresh cracked black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions (optional for topping)

Directions:

• Add grass fed butter or coconut oil to a sauce pan and melt on a low to medium heat. Whisk onion and celery powders until combined.
• Stir in bone broth, coconut aminos, sesame oil, Pink Himalayan salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Using a fork or whisk, slowly pour and stir the eggs into the broth.  Be sure to not stir fast, but make sure you are moving the fork enough to not foam a large glob of egg.  
• As soon as you are done, sprinkle in your seaweed bits.  As much or as little as you desire.  It will soften quickly.

• Turn off and remove from heat.
• I like to sprinkle a few green onions or chives on the top of mine, but my men don't.  So garnish as you would like.
• Also for those of you that like a thicker, more filling soup, I add chicken from a rotisserie or whatever chicken you have on hand.
• For those of you that don't mind chunks of onion and celery (my men don't like in their soup), you can use the real thing instead of powders.

If you are looking to make your own bone broth.  Here is my blog post on how I did mine!
