Edamame Salad with Red Bell Pepper
This folate-rich and high-protein bean is a favorite in my home. I used the shelled version for this recipe. Though I serve this salad with greens, it can be served without. Recipe and photo contributed by Vasanthi Raghavan, from Mixed and Tossed.
Serves: 2 generously, with the greens
Combine the edamame in a saucepan with a small quantity of water and the salt. Steam for 5 minutes or until tender, then drain.
Combine with the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl. Toss together and serve, topping with extra cilantro if desired.
