Hearty Coconut Soup (Young Green Coconut, Avocado, Tomatoes, Lettuce, Lemon, Kelp, Cummin,turmeric, Chili Powder)

I was wanting something that would fill me up, and was inspired to make a coconut soup after reading a post at the Raw Diva Powder Room. I didn’t have any coriander (cilantro) or lemongrass, so made the most of what I did have.

Hearty Coconut Soup

This makes about one litre of soup.

• green coconut – meat & water
• avocado
• 100g cherry tomatoes (3.5 oz)
• head of lettuce
• small lemon – juice
• 1 tsp each cummin and turmeric
• 2 tsp kelp powder
• 1/2 tsp chili powder

Just put it all in your blender and blend away!

I didn’t use lettuce because I didn’t think of it until I’d finished my soup. <grin> Although it would go very well with the soup. Something else I didn’t think to add was a clove of garlic. Garlic is a favourite at our home, and I put it in just about everything savoury. This is a very filling soup, and I only had 3 cups even though I was very hungry (normally I’d have 5 cups of soup for dinner, but don’t tell anyone!). This makes up enough for two very large servings, or four smaller servings.

Blessings,
