Anti-Inflammatory Coconut Soup

Anti-Inflammatory Coconut Soup - Pin Me!

I think this cold weather is calling for some soup! More specifically calling for this Anti-Inflammatory Coconut Soup 😉 While I normally favor thick creamy blended vegetable soup, I will make an exception for this lovely Anti-Inflammatory Coconut Soup filled with veggie goodness.

Anti-Inflammatory Coconut Soup with bok choy, flat beans and mushrooms.

This soup is easy and quick to make, and you can play around with the filling to suit your needs and tolerance level. I used frozen mushrooms (champignon) in this recipe. While mushrooms of any kind is considered medium to high histamine. I got a tip a while back that frozen mushrooms should be better tolerated. And for me at least this is true. I honestly can’t remember what the reason for this should be, so please bare with me. If you don’t feel like you are in the right place to test out, just replace the mushrooms with some diced chicken breast, or some white meat fish.

You start with prepping all of the veggies. Slice up the bok choy and the flat beans into thin slices. Chop up the frozen mushrooms, into bite size pieces. Heat up the coconut oil in a big pot, add minced garlic, dried lemon grass, turmeric and ginger. Let the spices fry a bit to get the aromas going. Then add in the frozen mushrooms, and cook them till they have gone all soft and is cooked through. Add in the bouillon (use any tolerated bouillon, or bone broth), coconut milk (make sure to find a brand of coconut milk that doesn’t contain a whole bunch of nasty added ingredients like guar gom), and flat beans. Bring it to a boil, cover the pan with a lid, and let it simmer for about 6 minutes on low heat. Bok choy, flatbeans and mushrooms - ready to be turned into Anti-Inflammatory Coconut Soup

Then add the bok choy, give it a good stir. Put the lid back on, and let it cook for another 4 minutes.

Salt to taste, serve it up and enjoy. If you want the soup to be more filling you can add in some noodles.

Note: If you want to replace the mushrooms with chicken, add the chicken (cut up into small dices) instead of the mushrooms to the spices. Fry till the chicken starts to brown. If you want to replace the mushrooms with (white) fish (cut up into small dices), then add the fish to the soup together with the bok choy.

      Totally understandable Philip. I provided a few ideas as what to replace the mushrooms with 🙂 Other options in soft cooked onion, or thick noodles. I hope you give it a try even with out the mushrooms.
