Egg Drop Soup Noodle Bowl



Yeah, it's top ramen. I'm in college, whatever. Some nights (like tonight) I'm just looking for a quick meal before I head to the library for the rest of the evening. Ramen alone, though, won't hit the spot. The soup above is high in protein, carbs and iron--great energy and study food! This was made using a packet of thai kitchen rice noodle packages (ginger and spice, or something like that) but could be made the same way with a top ramen package or truly from scratch with rice noodles and broth.


Bring a cup and half of water (or broth) to a boil. Just as the water begins to simmer throw in a couple handfuls of baby spinach (if you're feeling fancy bok choy!) and, if you like, a chopped green onion or two. Just as the water begins to boil put in your noodles and let boil for two minutes.  In a separate bowl break an egg and scramble it with a fork. Begin stirring your noodles and leaves so you get a steady swirl and slowly pour in your scrambled egg so it cooks as it hits the boiling water. Continue boiling for about a minute. Remove from heat and add your broth packet. Yummm!
