When I was growing up, a salad was a bowl of iceberg lettuce with a whole lot of creamy dressing on top. These days my salads have a whole lot more nutrition and flavor.
This Edamame Peanut Salad only takes a few minutes of prep time and looks and tastes great. It works well as a lunch on it’s own or can be used as a side dish for a bigger meal.

I know a lot of you pay attention to labels, especially when it comes to soybean products.

They are fully cooked, firm and not at all mushy.
Just open the package and they are ready to use in recipes or snack on as is.
You’ll find them in the refrigerated section of grocery store produce departments.
