Edamame and Chickpea Salad
Serves 4
Edamame are Japanese soybeans and can be found in the frozen foods section of your grocery store. This salad is really easy to make and you can eat it as a side dish or a main salad over mixed greens.
Ingredients
- 1/2 bag frozen, shelled edamame (5 ounces)
- 1 can chickpeas, drained (14 ounces)
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 celery stalk, chopped
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
- Cook edamame according to package instructions. Drain and let cool.
- Mix in a medium size bowl: edamame, chickpeas, feta, celery, EVOO, lemon juice and cumin. Toss and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately as a side salad or over mixed greens as a main course. You can cover with plastic wrap and stick it in the fridge for later, too.
