Thai Inspired Peanut & Coconut Soup

Thai Peanut & Coconut Soup

I love the exotic flavors of Thai food- the hint of sweet with savory and the richness of the spices. I’m always trying to come up with new recipes to satisfy my tastebuds. Kraft Smooth Peanut Butter is an ingredient that I use in a lot of my Thai inspired dinners. It’s so much more than a spread and really enhances the taste of a lot of my recipes. One of favourites is this Thai Peanut & Coconut soup. Not only is this soup easy to make, but is ready in less than 30 minutes start to finish.
