Deluxe Egg Drop Soup Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Cinco de Mayo Recipes. (Deluxe Egg Drop Soup Recipe). Not satisfied with many of the egg drop soup recipes I have come across here and elsewhere, I decided to try coming up with my own. It's not the prettiest looking soup around, but it is closer in taste and substance to what I was looking for. I may add some sweet corn next time I make it to add a little sweetness to it.
