Cantaloupe-Basil Soup

Fruit may not be the first ingredient you think of when it comes to soup, but pureed with coconut milk, basil, and peppers, cantaloupe is a soup stand-out. This bright, sweet-savory dish is delicious with Asian food. Don't have basil? Substitute mint or cilantro for an equally refreshing result.
