egg drop soup

2 cups chicken broth
1 egg, beaten
Heat to boiling 2 cups of chicken broth
-- preferably homemade
(which the children can learn to do by watching you cover chicken bones with water).
Swirl the mixture with a wooden spoon and drop in one raw egg that you have mixed with a fork.
Almost instantly you will have a famous Chinese soup that tastes good and is good for you.
This takes about the same amount of time as making a bologna sandwich.
