Soooo, I don't normally pay much attention to Rachel Ray, but I just saw her make a version of stracciatella (an Italian egg drop soup) with mini meatballs like you'd find in Italian wedding soup. Sounds like protein heaven to me 
INGREDIENTS
Bring stock to a simmer. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and nutmeg, and combine with onion, garlic, breadcrumbs and 1 egg. Roll walnut-sized balls and drop them into the broth. Simmer meatballs in the broth for 7-8 minutes.
Whisk up 4 eggs with the cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Stir into the soup to make egg rags running throughout it. Take the soup off the heat, add scallions and lemon juice, and serve soup in shallow bowls.
