Lemon Egg Soup
This is an easy but delicious soup loosely inspired by Greek Avgolemono. It uses one egg for 4 starter sized bowls, or double it for a more substantial meal. This recipe is naturally dairy and gluten free. Lemon and egg may sound like an odd combination is a savory dish but take a leap of faith and try it. You won’t regret it!
