Coconut Curry Chicken Soup

I was feeling a little under the weather today with a bit of a cold coming on.  It was also raining and a PERFECT day for a spicy soup.  My favorite soup is Coconut Chicken Curry soup but its always packed full of calories, sugar and chemical additives.  I decided to give it a go! I will definitely be making this again!  Now only if my husband loved curry as much as I do!
