This easy egg drop soup takes minutes to make (literally!) as it’s prepared and cooked in about 25 minutes! The perfect dinner idea for all those crazy busy weeknights! Even when you’re crazy busy and cooking dinner is the last thing on your mind, this wonderful Italian egg drop soup makes your life so much easier and so flavorful!

I made my egg drop soup with pasta and chickpeas to make it more consistent and filling and I used whole wheat pasta to add a little bit more healthiness to my already healthy soup! Call me crazy but I love the abundance of greens in this Italian egg drop soup! I think it gives the soup much more appeal, making it simply irresistible!

We served our egg drop soup recipe simple, without any bread or a side dish but I totally see this working well with garlic bread and a large mixed greens salad with a lemon garlic vinaigrette. You could even add a touch of sour cream or yogurt if you like to make it a little bit more sour than it is.
