Lean & Green safe! Egg Drop Soup and Spinach with Balsamic Vinaigrette

*UPDATE! Medifast nutrition support helped me make these two things Lean & Green safe.

Homemade Egg Drop Soup
This recipes is 2 ounces of protein and 3 condiments, and makes one serving.

• 4 egg whites (lightly scrambled)
• 1 can chicken broth (14.5 oz)
• 1/8 -1/4 tsp ground white pepper (this is what gives the soup a bite)
• 1/2 tsp granulated chicken bouillion

Prepare the eggs whites first, then put the broth into a small soup pan. Add the arrowroot, pepper, and bouillion.

(The bouillion is to add more flavor since canned broth doesn't always have a lot. I want to try this with a good chicken stock and see if that tastes better. I'd rather not add bouillion because it is made with so many things.)

Once the broth is hot, but not boiling, slowly stir in the egg whites

Balsamic Spinach Salad

• 3 cups Baby Spinach (one cup counts as one vegetable serving)
• 1-2 Tbs Lucini Brand: Tuscan Balsamic & Extra Virgin Artisan Vinaigrette (one tbs of this dressing counts as one fat serving.)

This dressing is super yummy, and I've discovered this past year that I LOVE baby spinach. (I've been eating it with Cesar salad dressing, which I know is not the healthiest dressing. So I picked up this Balsamic bottle. It's made by the same people who make the Cesar that I love. Much to my surprise (not sure why I was surprised) I really enjoy the flavor.

I emailed nutrition support, and they helped me tweak the recipe for the soup. The dressing is also safe to eat while on the plan.
