    All About Edamame

    Published: Sep 14, 2015 ยท Updated: Nov 22, 2019 ยท Post may contain affiliate links

    Celebrate veggies all year long with a new vegetable each week! This week, we're highlighting edamame.

    Celebrate Veggies All Year - Edamame from Living Well Kitchen

    Edamame is one of my favorite veggies for its snacking capabilities. I like to buy big bags of edamame in the pods and put them in little snack bags. They are a high protein snack that doesn't make me feel too full or leave me hungry later on.

    They are also a great lean protein for people who choose not to eat meat. Plus, they have lots & lots of nutrients to offer
