This salad is one of my favorite lunches ever, A. because it tastes amazing and B. because it keeps in the fridge for several days, giving me a few lunches that I can just grab at a moment's notice. The addition of the whole grain bagel is recent. What exactly is the topping, you may be wondering? Well, that would be a smear of natural peanut butter and some squiggles of Sriracha sauce. I can assure you that, A. I am not pregnant and B. it is delicious, and not even in a strange way. Try it, trust me :)
The salad recipe comes from my "Veganomicon" cookbook. I don't use a ton of recipes from it, but the ones I do are a solid addition to my eclectic diet.
Corn Edamame Salad
2 T. toasted sesame oil
1 T. vinegar (I used the apple cider variety)
2 t. soy sauce
2 c. frozen, shelled edamame
1 c. frozen corn
2 T. toasted sesame seeds
pinch of salt
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, whisk together the oil, vinegar and soy sauce in a medium-sized bowl. Boil the edamame for 3 minutes. Add the corn and boil for 2 minutes more. Drain into a colander and rinse with cold water. Add the edamame and corn to the dressing, stir in the sesame seeds and chill in the fridge for a least an hour before serving. Keeps covered for several days in the fridge.

I'm making this edamame dish...not sure about the hot sauce and PB.
ReplyDeleteLet me know how you like the salad. Admittedly, I eat some strange combos, but these flavors just remind me of Thai... a little sweet, spicy and salty with peanuts. But I understand it's not for everyone :)
