Turning up the Volume: Asian-style "Protein" Noodle Soup

VegetableMedley, who graced us with yesterday's post, has been influencing my eating habits--I've been trying to eliminate some of the meat in my diet. So, when I was feeling a little under the weather today, I instinctively wanted chicken noodle soup. Since I didn't have a can, I improvised, creating what I'll call Asian-style "protein" noodle soup:

First off, that irritating spec on the tofu is broccoli. The rest of the soup contains chicken broth (so not quite 100% veggie), clear Asian noodles, tofu, and egg whites (which this site claims is the "purest form of protein known to man in the entire world." so there.). The egg white idea came from Chinese egg drop soup. A few drops of soy sauce and I'm feeling better already...
