After being nearly poisoned (not literally, but still) by the egg drop soup at a local Chinese restaurant, I came up with my own recipe. It is posted along with a photo here...
Chicken & Egg Drop Soup Recipe
I can't believe I used to eat the egg drop soup at the restaurant and like it! It was nothing more than chicken flavored corn starch! ACK!
My recipe has a little more substance to it even though it is not thickened. It is really cheap to make as well. One chicken breast made enough soup for me to have several lunches worth as well as have a big bowl right after I made it. The most expensive ingredient was the Shitaki mushrooms. If you don't want to spend extra for those tasty pieces of fungus, you can sub in other varieties. Enjoy!!!

That is pretty darn close to the way I make it. MUCH better than restaurant version. It is really good with some fresh ginger and garlic chili sauce too :)
That soup looks so good! I will make some the next time a craving for Chinese food hits. So glad to have found a LC version of it! :)
I made some this morning, and it quite hit the spot. Thanks:)
Hey, where are you? Suffering withdrawal from your blog!!
Chicken soup is very good for a healthy diet.Since chicken is most fat free it helps to maintain the low carb diet.

You obviously have no clue what you are talking about. Low carb does not mean low fat. A low fat diet is very dangerous and unhealthy.
