How to make it 

Place a large pan or stockpot on medium heat. Add the coconut oil, swirling to coat the pan. Add in the onions, sweet potatoes, and lemongrass. Cook for about 7-10 minutes, or until the onions start to become translucent and golden brown.

Add in the mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, and oyster mushrooms. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, or until the carrots and broccoli are tender-crisp.

Pour in the chicken broth and coconut milk. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.

Add in the spring mix and the shrimp, cooking for 2-3 minutes or until light pink in color.

Stir in half of the parsley, bringing the soup back to a boil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
