Avgolemono Soup

6 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup orzo (you can substitute rice)
salt and pepper to taste
1 chicken bullion cube
3 eggs
1-2 lemons, juice of

Combine chicken broth, rice, salt, pepper and bullion cube in a large soup pot. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until orzo is tender.

In a bowl, beat eggs until fluffy and pale yellow. Stir in lemon juice. Stir about 2 cups of the hot broth into the egg-lemon mixture, so that the eggs do not curdle. Pour the lemon-egg mixture into the rest of the soup and stir. Enjoy!
