    according to the cookbook (she used regular coconut milk, i use the low-fat coconut milk):
    calories: 232 cal
    12.2g fat
    20g protien
    10.3 carbs
    466 mg sodium

    this is before the rice or quinoa i think.

    bump! Don't do the seafood, but I'd love to modify the coconut curry for another dish.

    Who am I kidding, I could just eat (drink?) coconut curry by itself.
