This soup comes together fast and is packed with hearty, nourishing ingredients.

Make

Heat a Dutch oven or large saucepan with oil over medium heat. Add onions and saute until tender and translucent, 4 to 5 minutes.
To onions, stir in white parts of green onions, garlic, ginger, curry powder, turmeric, and salt. Saute until fragrant, ~2 minutes more.
Pour coconut milk and stock into pan, stirring to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
Bring soup to a simmer. Simmer on low for 10 minutes to let the flavors develop.
Stir in shrimp and baby spinach and cook just until shrimp is opaque and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes.
Remove stew from heat and stir in lemon juice. Taste and season with some more salt and / or more lemon juice if needed.
If cauliflower rice was prepped ahead, reheat in the microwave. (Reserve half if doubled.)
Divide cauliflower rice between serving bowls, keeping it on one side. Ladle stew into the other side of the bowls. Top with green parts of green onions. Enjoy!
