"I created this recipe by pulling together a couple different soup ideas. This October, I brought this to a soup party, and it was a huge success - everyone loved it! It makes enough to fill a 6-quart slow cooker with a bit extra leftover."

directions

  • Cook rice according to package directions - usually 2 cups jasmine rice to 3 cups water.
  • In a large stock pot, melt butter and olive oil, and saute onions on high heat until slightly softened with hint of brown.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste and continue to saute.
  • Add yellow pepper and garlic and saute for just a minute - make sure garlic doesn't brown or it will be bitter.
  • Add 2 ounces (½ can) of curry paste and stir over high heat for a minute or two.
  • Add tomatoes, lime juice, coconut milk, coconut cream, and chicken broth; mix well.
  • Bring to a gentle boil and add raw shrimp. (I used frozen shrimp and added it frozen to the soup without thawing to keep it as fresh as possible.).
  • Once shrimp turns opaque serve right away or ladle into slow cooker and bring to your next soup party or potluck.
  • Can be garnished with cilantro if you like.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have been working with families for over 18 years, and I have taught as a licensed parent and family educator in the state of Minnesota. I currently work in St. Paul Public Schools (District 625) working with families whose children were aged birth to 5 years old. One of my favorite ages to work with has to be those adorable 3-year-olds who tell it like it is-they crack me up! My teaching is built upon a philosophy of critical reflection, strength-based learning strategies, meeting families where they are at in their everyday living, and using a holistic approach to understand parenting challenges in the real world. My doctorate is in Education: Curriculum and Instruction-Family, Youth, and Community from the University of Minnesota. I had a strong focus on parent and family education, and my research was focused on teens and youth. I have explored children and teen's peer group formation, and my Ph.D. dissertation examined parent-teen conflict and argument from the teen perspective. My dissertation was published in book form under the title, "What Are Teens Thinking? Parent-Teen Conflict and Argument From the Teen Perspective." In addition to teaching parents, I dedicated many years to teaching up and coming parent educators, family life educators, and early childhood educators as an adjunct faculty at both the University of Minnesota and Concordia University
