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!

If you want to make ahead and freeze leave out the egg until you reheat.
I haven’t been able to find Thai chilis anywhere, any suggestions of where to purchase them or possible substitutions?
I’m going to try it with a little cayenne pepper.
Can’t wait to try this :)
This was so quick and easy to make, and very good! Husband really liked it as well!
Wish you had a picture of a Thai chili…I have no idea what that is!
I’m trying to pin the Spicy Egg Drop Soup Recipe on Pinterest but it’s not there. This looks great!
Got it pinned!
