Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a pot, combine 1 can coconut milk and 2 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, about 5 minutes, until steaming.

  2. Step 2

    Add 8 oz cubed firm tofu, 8 oz shrimp, and 4 oz sliced mushrooms. Simmer gently for 5-7 minutes, until shrimp are pink and opaque.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in 2 heads of baby bok choy (halved or chopped). Cook for 2-3 minutes, until leaves are wilted and stems are tender-crisp.

  4. Step 4

    Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with lime wedges or chili flakes if desired.
