Directions
For a quick dinner, check out my short cuts: 
Heat 3 Tbsp of olive oil in a large stock pot
Add the onions, celery, and potatoes. Once the onions began to turn, add garlic, carrots, and red pepper.
Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring half way. Add 1/4 cup of red wine, and chicken broth.
Place the lid on and bring to a boil for 7-10 minutes.
Add crushed tomato, coconut milk, and fresh herbs and spices.
Then whip out your immersion blender and blend until smooth. Or, pour into a large processor or blender to purée.
Simmer on low for 5-10 more minutes.
Serve on its own, or with a drizzle of coconut cream, or topped with your favorite meat.
