Spring has sprung soup

 Everything in my yard is blooming so of course I had to go out and play in my garden. I’ve been eating greens from the curly dock that is allowed to grow there, the dandelions, Traveling onions, and now I’m adding some evening Primrose leaves for Thai soup. I would tell you how I make this, But every time it’s a little different. We like ours hot so there’s usually some sort of hot pepper or hot chili, garlic sauce, added, some shaved ginger, always some coconut milk, and Green chili paste. I’ve added it all kind of things to this depending on the mood I’m in, and what I have on hand. You can add any kind of vegetables you like, sometime, I’ve added fresh, basil, or frozen pesto from my freezer, sweet potato… You name it. We’re pretty much vegan around here usually, so it usually doesn’t have any meat in it but you can certainly substitute tofu if you’re like me or add a nice chicken stock and pieces of chicken. Oh, and I forgot I usually add a little bit of soy sauce, and sometimes a touch of Stevia it’s time to get out side with your kids and look beneath your feet.  See what’s for dinner!
