Coconut Curry Soup

Perfect for a cold night when you want something warm and semi-healthy! Although I have this labeled as a soup, this is very hearty and thick – almost more of a stew than a soup, but equally delicious. This is packed full of vegetables and flavor. The curry powder adds a subtle flavor, but stillContinue reading “Coconut Curry Soup”
