Changua (Milk and Egg Soup)

I must say that the name of the soup doesn’t really sound appetizing. But give this a chance. This soup is quite magical and costs $1 to make. Changua is a typical Colombian breakfast, but can be eaten at anytime of the day. This is also considered to be the perfect hangover food. What it really tastes like is a light cream soup with poached eggs and toast in it.
