Ingredients
  

Soup Base
  • 13.5 ounces Coconut Milk Adds a velvety creaminess; almond milk can be used for a lighter touch.

  • 2 cups Spinach or Kale Infuses freshness and nutrients; substitute with any leafy green.
  • 2 cups Vegetables (carrots, bell peppers) Adds sweetness and vibrant color; seasonal veggies can be swapped.
Flavor Enhancement
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice Brightens the overall flavor; lemon juice works well in a pinch.
  • 2 teaspoons Ginger Elevates the taste profile with aromatic notes; fresh versions are preferred.
  • 2 teaspoons Garlic Elevates the taste profile with aromatic notes; fresh versions are preferred.
