this is currently my fav soup:

coconut milk soup
1 1/2 quarts homemade chicken (or fish) stock (i make my own monthly but you can buy it organic at whole foods)
1 can coconut milk and cream
1 lb chicken (or fish but i've never used fish) cut into small cubes
1 cup chopped mushrooms
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 tbsp fish sauce
2-4 tbsp lime juice

simmer all ingredients until meat is cooked through
garnish with cilantro if you want

so easy... incredibly delicious! i usually serve it with or over some type of pasta

I do nearly the same, but with a little cilantro thrown in at the end. :) my recipe calls for a little brown sugar, but I usually omit it.

Thhat sounds really good. I'm going to make it today. It sounds like a good outlet for the kale in my fridge too

I can vouch for the goodness of Kale in this soup, I did that just a week and a half ago. I also threw in a few strands of onion. :)
