Wow, this totally didn’t work. The stock making suggestion was a disaster–what happens when you boil 8 cups of water for 90 minutes is not that you get 8 cups of stock. It is that you get a near empty pot and shoe leather chicken. (I should have trusted my common sense on that.) When I tried to make it again (with bought stock, this time) the chicken flavoring made it taste way too strong, not at all tasty. And it isn’t at all healthy with all the egg and dairy. I will not be trying this for a third time.

This was excellent! Though I used chicken bouillon, I should’ve listened to the other reviewers & also lessened the amount of lemon juice.

loved this soup! So good!

(One note I learned the hard way… if you are going to leave out the Chicken Base Granules – we don’t keep that on hand – cut down the lemon juice a bit! Otherwise this was pretty much perfect!) :o) Thanks for sharing!

It won’t let me leave a review so I’ll leave a comment instead. OMG! BEST soup EVER!!!! I’ve never had it before and thought it sound good. I’m an addict now! It’s creamy and filling, yet light and refreshing. I made a 1/2 batch yesterday and had it for lunch, dinner and lunch again and today and I’m out. I have more chicken simmering so I can made it for a party this weekend. It’s officially my favorite soup ever!

Delish! A new family favorite, wouldn’t change a thing! I would say that making 2 pots in 3 days would definitely mean it’s a keeper!

Made this with spinach pie this weekend with my parents. We love it so much that I made another pot tonight for the week! Loved it and wouldn’t change a thing! This is most definitely a new favorite!

This was fantastic! Exactly like the avgolemono at my favorite Greek restaurant.
