Thai Vegetable Soup

Thai Vegetable Soup

Ingredients: 2 Tbsp olive oil (or coconut oil, yum), 1 onion (finely chopped), 2 c shitake mushrooms (I didn't add these), 1 quart vegetable broth, 1 can coconut milk, 1 Tbsp minced ginger root, 2 Tbsp lime juice, 1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt, 1 head broccoli (I used a bag frozen stir fry mix), cilantro for garnish (optional), I also added in a little bit of curry, and chili powder to taste because I thought it was bland without it,  and protein of your choice (I added diced chicken)

1. Warm oil in a large saucepan over medium heat
2. Add onion, stirring frequently until softened, about 10 minutes
3. Add mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes
4. Stir in broth and coconut milk, bring to simmer
5. Reduce heat to medium and add broccoli and ginger and cook 3-5 minutes
6. Stir in lime juice and salt
7. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with cilantro
8. Enjoy :-)

I actually just dumped everything into the crock-pot as is and let it cook all day.
