Since I'm planning on doing another Egg Fast
sometime in the next few weeks, I've been experimenting with some new recipes. This is one that is hubby-approved, so you know it's good. ;) If you're not doing an Egg Fast, that's okay - it's still ultra low-carb! It makes a fabulous lunch, and you can pair it with some cheese crisps to give it a little more "body." It also pairs nicely with a salad for those of you who are not Egg Fasting.
Ingredients:
1 can (14 oz.) chicken broth
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 tablespoon Liquid Aminos (you can also use soy sauce)
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch Splenda
2 eggs, beaten
Optional Garnish: 1 tablespoon sliced green onion
Directions:
Heat broth, butter, Liquid Aminos, sesame oil, ginger, garlic powder, and Splenda over medium-high heat until boiling.
Let boil for 1 minute and then reduce heat to medium-low.
While continuously stirring the broth mixture, thinly drizzle beaten egg into the pot and simmer about 1 minute to ensure that the eggs are fully set and opaque.
Yields: 1 serving

This is my fav recipe of yours. I'm on my third egg fast since I started Keto and its been going great. I find it easy to do an egg fast when I can eat this every day. I like making a big batch because I'm pretty lazy, and even though this is easy, I do much better if I have something that I can just heat!
I never have aminos, so I use tamari (low carb, gluten free soy sauce). Tastes great!
One egg less shouldn't make much difference as long as you take your fat down a tablespoon as well. I also find that the longer the soup sits, the more you get that "cracker" effect. One great trick (if you haven't already tried it), is to stick those eggs in a blender and blend the crud out of them! Lol They pour much thinner and make for a better "noodle" texture this way.

Yeah, tamari is a great sub! :)
DeleteI dropped the eggs to 1 as two eggs were too much and it seemed as if I were eating soggy crackers
