Coconut Curry Soup

Healthy, delicious, this recipe is great. It serves 4-6 people and takes 10 minutes to prep and 25 total to cook, how easy. Double it and freeze half. Sub rice for the noodles and add whatever extra veggies your family likes, like spinach. This is excellent for winter health as it warms you up and stimulates your body to fight colds with the fresh ginger and garlic. Enjoy!
