Okay, hear me out— I know they don’t look as pretty as fresh edamame pods, but these frozen ones tasted almost just as good. I steamed them in the microwave with the broccoli for ~2 mins and topped with flaky sea salt.
Normally when I have tofu and veg I add in some sort of heavier carb like black rice or millet ramen, but I’m so glad I tried swapping that out with edamame this time around! I can’t believe this whole serving is only around ~70 calories.
I know 26g of protein isn’t that much for meat eaters, but it’s pretty good and satiating for just 470kcal in a vegan/vegetarian meal. Way better protein/calorie ratio than rice, at least!
