SO HOW'D IT GO?

This soup is absolutely FANTASTIC!!  I've made it 3 times in the past 10 days and I'll make it again for Thanksgiving dinner.  I did swap out the canned coconut milk for coconut milk that comes in a carton, and I added 1 tsp salt after blending.  This has become a staple in our house!

This is dee-lish! But, I wonder if there is any way to lower the fat/calories from all the coconut milk. Any ideas?

You could also try replacing half the coconut milk with regular soymilk

or unsweetened almond milk-only 40 cal per cup!

You can use "lite" coconut milk.  It definitely has less fat and fewer calories.  They sell it right next to the regular coconut milk.
