The best recipe for Coconut Curry Soup
Coconut Curry Soup…
Something about coconut milk and curry gets me every time! I just love the way the flavors blend together making for a spicy, yet soothing soup 🙂
This is a soup that can be made in very little time and with a variety of vegetables. I used carrots, green beans and baby corn, but you could add bell peppers, broccoli, sweet potatoes or mushrooms! I tossed in some tofu cubes for protein and served brown short grain rice on the side rounding this out as a complete meal!

Notes
Fun Fact: Red curry paste contains a whole bunch of amazing superfood ingredients including red chili pepper, lemongrass, garlic, ginger and kaffir lime. Kaffir limes are native to Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia. Their leaves contain a volatile oil, which is full of antioxidants as well as properties that serve as a digestive aid. The combination of ingredients found in red curry paste may prove to be a powerful and therapeutic anti-inflammatory agent. And it tastes amazing 🙂
