Mango Ginger Coconut Soup
I try to vary my dining week by throwing in vegetarian-only dishes that still pack a lot of flavor, but give me some of the veggies I may have missed out. I also love using ginger in recipes because of the many health benefits. Trust me, you will feel somehow cleansed after you eat a bowl full of ginger-infused soup and the mango and ginger pairing is superb!
