Ingredients

    1 big can (48oz) of Chicken Broth
    4 bags of Boil-in-Bag White Rice (or 8 cups cooked white rice)
    8-10 eggs
    Salt & Pepper to taste
    ~2 cups (to your taste) of Lemon Juice

Directions

Warm up the broth in a large soup pot while cooking rice separately as per instructions.

In a large bowl crack the eggs

VERY VERY SLOWLY, fold in the warmed broth into the eggs, while stirring (so that it folds in and the egg doesn't scramble up and 'cook')

When all of the broth is added to the eggs, transfer that mixture back into the large soup pot.

When the rice is finished cooking seperately, stir it into the large soup pot where you had the broth/egg mixture.

Add the lemon juice (to taste, I like mine lemony!) and salt and pepper to taste

Simmer while stirring for a little bit (5-10 minutes)

Enjoy! This was my Grandma's recipe, so make sure to add lots of love while cooking it! :)
