Hello Fellow Fitness Foodies! I am super excited to share this recipe with you all. I used to purchase an Edamame Salad from Central Market in their Fresh Food section and it was fabulous. I have to tell you that this recipe is pretty darn close to theirs if not BETTER!! It is a fast and easy recipe that delivers. You can serve this as a side dish, as a main course, add chicken or shrimp, or eat it just for a snack! I promise you that you will not be disappointed!
Ingredients
For the Dressing
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter (I use Smart Balance)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha sauce (Thai hot sauce - optional)
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 cup canola oil
For the Slaw
- 4 cups prepared shredded coleslaw
- 1-2 cups cooked and shelled edamame
- 2 cups prepared shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced into bite-sized pieces
- 2 medium scallions, finely sliced
- 1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts (or you can leave them whole - I use honey roasted sometimes)
- 1/2 cup loosely packed chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
- Make the dressing by combining all of the ingredients, except canola oil, in a medium bowl. Stir until the peanut butter is dissolved. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the canola oil. Set aside.
- Combine all of the slaw ingredients in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss well. Let sit at least ten minutes so vegetables have a chance to soak up the dressing. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary (I usually add a bit more salt.) Serve cold.
Happy Healthy Eating! -Nicole
