As promised to many ...here is the MINERALS galore recipe!

2 cups dried or fresh coconut
4-5 cups water
6 lemon grass leaves
1/3 cup sesame seeds
1 tsp red chili flakes
1/2 lemon juiced
1/2 lime juiced
4 green onions
2 celery stalks
1/4 cup cilantro root or stalks
1/2 med. yellow bell pepper
1/2 med. red bell pepper
garlic cloves
2 nori sheets or other seaweeds (broken up)
1/2 Tbs fresh ginger root, grated
2 Tbs coconut oil (optional)
2 tbs lecithin powder (optional)
2 tsp agave nectar or honey
1/4 cup tamari or nama shoyu
Natural Sea Salt to taste

Toppings:1 small avocado, diced1/3 cup sliced cherry tomatoes1/3 cup thinly sliced radish1/3 cup thinly sliced red pepper1/3 cup thinly sliced yellow pepperHandful cilantro leavesHandful sesame seeds Blend the coconut with 2 cups water until smooth. Then add the remaining water and blend until a coconut milk forms.Finely grind the lemon grass, sesame seeds, red chili flakes in a high speed blender or coffee grinder. Add these, along with the rest of the broth and ingredients to the 'coconut milk' and blend for a few seconds until very smooth. Strain and discard the pulp (optional).Note: If cilantro roots are not available, use stalks. However the disadvantage is that it will give the soup a greenish tint.
To serve: Divide toppings among 4 bowls. If desired, gently warm broth on stove while stirring constantly and pour pour over veggies. Top with cilantro leaves and black sesame seeds
