Egg drop soup with brussels sprouts

So, I'm still doing my plain, spiceless diet. Veggies work fine, and brussels sprouts are one of my favorites. This is a quick, easy and almost healthy meal ;-)

Ingredients
1 package Ramen noodles
10 small brussels sprouts
1 egg

Preparation
Cook the Ramen noodles in as little water as possible. Do not add the entire salt pocket, you can greatly moderate the healthiness of the meal by leaving out tons of extra sodium.

When the noodles are soft and squishy, add in 10 frozen brussels sprouts. I get these from a "steam-in-the-bag" frozen veggie package. One package is enough to make four portions usually. The brussels sprouts in those are really small and cute.

When the sprouts have warmed through (1-2 minutes in the boiling soup for these small sprouts), add the egg white on the top.

Allow to cook and stir in a little later, depending on how chunky you like it.

When the egg whites are completely cooked, pour the boiling soup into a bowl. Make a little nest and add in the egg yolk.

Dust with some black pepper and stir into the soup before eating. Yumm!
