    Start by chopping the tomatoes into small pieces and the green onion into thin slices.

    2

    In a pot, add the chicken broth and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

    Once boiling, carefully add the chopped tomatoes and let them cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, until they soften.

    Next, add the spinach and cook for another 2 minutes until it wilts.

    In a separate bowl, beat the eggs well. Reduce the heat to low, and slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the soup while stirring gently to create egg ribbons.

    Let the soup simmer for an additional minute, and then remove from heat.
