Soup is one of go to recipes whenever I’m really hungry. I eat a bowl before I eat my lunch or dinner, and then that helps to fill me up, so I don’t overdo it on the main course. And egg drop soup is a delicious and light option. However, a traditional egg drop soup recipe is quite mild. So sometimes, I really want to kick up the flavor notch and I whip up this spicy version instead.

It is so fast and easy to make, and is really quite delicious. And at just 1 Point for a 1 1/2 cup serving, this Spicy Egg Drop Soup is a fantastic Weight Watchers Recipe. Enjoy!

  1. If you want to make ahead and freeze leave out the egg until you reheat.

  2. I haven’t been able to find Thai chilis anywhere, any suggestions of where to purchase them or possible substitutions?

  3. This was so quick and easy to make, and very good! Husband really liked it as well!

  4. Wish you had a picture of a Thai chili…I have no idea what that is!
