Raw Food Thai Coconut Soup
Ingredients:
1 young coconut
4 cloves garlic
2 tsp fresh minced ginger or galangal
3 tbsp lime juice
2 tsp cold pressed olive or flax oil
1 tsp curry powder
1 medium tomato
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp fresh minced chili, or to taste (I used cayenne pepper)
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
diced bell pepper (optional)
chopped cherry tomatoes (optional)
mushrooms, thinly sliced (optional)
Preparation:
Open the coconut and drain the water into a blender. Scrape out the meat, and add to the blender.
Add garlic, ginger or galangal, lime juice, oil, curry powder, tomato, salt and chili. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Add cilantro and pulse until cilantro is finely minced.
Pour into serving containers and add any chopped veggies you like: bell pepper, tomatoes and thinly sliced mushrooms work well.
This raw coconut soup works well after it’s had a chance to chill in the fridge for a couple hours to allow the flavors to set. It’ll need a good stirring before serving, however, as the oils and coconut water will tend to separate.
Enjoy your raw food Thai coconut soup! Yum!

Did you know that your gut is your “Inside Tract” to health and wellness and that, with a “brain” of its own, (called the enteric nervous system), it acts as the interface between the outside world and the complex world within your body?
Sixty to seventy million Americans deal with digestive disease! If you suffer from a digestive disorder ( gas, bloating, nausea, acid reflux – GERD, constipation, diarhea, etc) chances are high that the rest of your body is paying a price with a systemic response of inflammation and a host of related ailments. Studies have shown that an unhealthy gut is related to joint and muscle pain, skin conditions, allergies, asthma, headaches, menstrual irregularities and more.
A Royal Flush is a comprehensive self-help program that will help you:
- Heal your GI tract and associated digestive disorders without medication!
- Increase your energy, uplift your mood, and improve your memory
- Loose weight without effort!
- Eliminate Hidden Food Allergies – a major source of several chronic illnesses
- Teach you what to eat, how to cook and where to shop!
- Eliminate joint pain
- Let your skin glow and your hair shine!
