Need something different?


Try this new recipe which was just created this morning:

1 cup quinoa
1 cup of edamame
1 cup sliced grape tomatoes
Dijon mustard
Fresh cracked pepper
(Makes about  4 servings)

Cook quinoa as directed with 2cups of water, simmer for 20 minutes, add in the shelled edamame. It will most likely be frozen, which works well. Turn the heat down to low and stir in with ½ cup of Dijon mustard. Once the edamame is cooked, add in grape tomatoes. Garnish with fresh cracked pepper.  Enjoy warm or put in the fridge and have later as a salad.

Edamame is a great source of fiber, Vitamin A , low in sodium and Protein. It can be added to salads, soups or enjoy them out of the pods with a little sea salt.
