GINGERED EDAMAME
Edamame are quite the star of the legume family. When you consider just a half-cup serving contains 11 grams of protein, 9 grams of fiber, 2 1/2 grams of heart-healthy fats, along with vitamins c, a, iron and calcium, you wonder, should I be eating these more often? Yes! This recipe could be for a snack time, a side dish, or you could easily add a whole grain (I highly suggest farro!) and more veggies for a meal.
Ingredients
- 3 cups steamed edamame
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons soy sauce low sodium
