Very tasty. I skipped the pasta. It really didn't need it.
Great recipe! I made some changes based on what we have in the house and personal taste. Instead of chicken, I used sliced sausage, which complemented the spinach flavor well. I doubled the garlic and used 10 oz. fresh spinach that I sauteed with the onion/garlic mixture. Another Stracciatella recipe uses lemon juice, so I added a scant Tbsp. which really perked up the soup. A plus for us: adding 1/3 C. milk/cream just before stirring in the eggs gives this a whole new look and flavor. YUM!
This soup was great! My daughters enjoyed it too although my husband originally stuck his nose up at it because he doesn't like spinach. After watching us enjoy it (while he ate left-overs) he decided he'd try it the next time I made it. I did make a few changes. I used garlic chicken broth since that was all I had on hand and decreased the amounts of chicken and spinach used due to what I had available. The parmesan makes it really yummy. It's definitely something I'll make again!
Good but not as good as the Stracciatella II recipe on this site. It did however give "tweaking" ideas for the latter dish.
I really liked this - even though I'm not usually a fan of soup. Used a touch of fresh lemon juice as suggested in another review. Based on ingredients I had on hand used: fresh spinach and penne pasta. Penne worked fine but had to boil soup a bit longer. Loved the flavour that the cayenne pepper brings to the dish.
Delicious! I was looking for a recipe using spinach pasta & egg and this was perfect! I added a large finely diced tomato and used fresh baby spinach finely sliced and a bit of olive oil with the butter-it was a hit. My three young boys loved it-simple good and very filling.
I love stracciatella. I make it very similiar to this recipe but usually without chicken and add additional spinach. Sometimes I will add rice rather than pasta depending on my mood. I have never added cayenne to this soup but was pleasantly surprised by its addition. Thank you!
this was ok not too much flavor but very easy to make. Great for a quick hot meal especially if you have a cold.
I was amazed at how much my husband and I enjoyed this soup. I used less chicken then the recipe called for and broken dried homemade pasta. I also didn't use any water but half chicken half vegetable stock. We'll definitely be having this soup again.
