226/365 Edamame, Edamayou

Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,

One of my favorite restaurants in Richmond, Sticky Rice, serves this rolled in salt as one of its appetizers. Edamame, soybeans, are a great snack that is packed with fiber, protein, and good fat. They can be purchased fresh or frozen, in their pods or out of them, and are easy to prepare; all you do is steam them on the stove or in the microwave. You can eat them as a snack or add them to your fried rice or noodles.

In health,

Lauren
