Recipe Introduction
"Edamame are vibrant, tasty green soybeans in the shells, and are readily available in most frozen sections of supermarkets and health food stores. This salad has a whopping 15 grams of protein to 18 grams of carbs - an unusual ratio. If edamame is not readily available, you can substitute chick peas."
List of Ingredients
1 bag (16 ounces) frozen shelled edamame (green soybeans)
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 bunch radishes (8 ounces), cut in half and thinly sliced
1 cup loosely packed chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Recipe
Toss the edamame, vinegar, oil, salt, pepper, radishes, and cilantro together in a large bowl.
Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Serves 4.
