View the previous or next recipe for this meal.

Edamame or soybeans are used as the base for this avocado-edamame guacamole style salad. This can even be served as a dip with tortilla chips. If you cannot find ripe tomatoes, try fresh chopped mangoes instead.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb edamame
  • 2 avocados
  • 1 lime
  • 1 tomato, cut in chunks, stem removed or chopped mango
  • ¼ cup sweet onion , minced
  • ½ teaspoon cumin, ground
  • ¼ teaspoon coriander, ground
  • ¼ cup cilantro, chopped, optional
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Serving Size: 4 People



 

Preparation Instructions

If the edamame are frozen, boil water and simmer for about 3-4 minutes. Dip in ice water or run cold water over the beans until they are cooled to room temperature.

Meanwhile, cut the avocado in half. Discard the pit. Slice chunks into the shell. Scoop out with a spoon. Toss with the lime juice.

Toss the edamame with the avocados, tomato, sweet onion, cumin, coriander and cilantro altogether with the olive oil. Serve immediately as the avocados will brown with time. Add extra lime all across the top to keep it less likely to brown.
