Directions
In a soup pot, combine soup ingredients and bring to a low boil. Mix meat ingredients in a bowl, make tiny meatballs, and drop into boiling broth mixture. In a small bowl, beat 2 eggs. With a wooden spoon, stir soup as you slowly drop in the eggs, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 2 minutes. Serve with grated cheese. (Stracciatelle means 'torn rags', which is what the eggs look like when you stir them into the hot broth.)
