BREAKFAST SOUP AKA BACON AND EGG SOUP
This is the soup I came up with when my son issued me a challenge! He and my husband, his Dad, play golf very early in the morning....even through the winter, unless there is snow on the ground. One morning, he asked if I could come up with a breakfast soup for their next excursion. It turned out so well, we've had it numerous times since.

Steps:
- In Dutch oven, cook bacon until crisp, stirring occasionally to keep pieces separate.
- Remove and drain bacon; keep warm.
- Discard all but 4 tablespoons of the drippings.
- Over medium heat, stir the flour into the drippings, blending well.
- Cook roux over medium heat for two minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add water, bouillon cubes (or substitute 9-10 cups ready made chicken bouillon) both kinds of pepper and salt (if using).
- Heat to boiling, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened and bouillon cubes are dissolved.
- Add freshly grated potatoes and instant onion; simmer for ten minutes.
- In bowl, mix eggs, nutmeg, parsley and Parmesan cheese.
- Stir into simmering soup and continue stirring constantly for three minutes.
- Eggs will separate into "rags"--just like the classic Italian Straciatella Soup.
- Stir in the reserved bacon pieces and serve immediately with Italian style breadsticks, which are optional.
