I am making this soup this week. Spicy Coconut Soup with Spinach and Shrimp
Curry paste and crushed red pepper give this soup a double dose of heat that's balanced by the coconut milk.
Cooking spray 2/3 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 1/2 teaspoons red curry paste 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper 2 (14-ounce) cans fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth 1 (14-ounce) can light coconut milk 1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined 6 cups torn spinach
Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic; sauté 4 minutes. Add curry paste and red pepper; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in broth and coconut milk; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add shrimp; cook 4 minutes or until shrimp are done. Stir in spinach; cook 2 minutes or until spinach wilts.
Yield: 6 servings (serving size: about 3/4 cup)

and I want to make some sort of Asian bruschetta to go with it. Like garlic toasts with Asian veg and sauce on it. Any ideas?
