This edamame and vegetable salad is full of lots of wonderful crunch and flavors as well as nutrients! Great for lunch boxes or as a side salad, too.

This is one of those proverbs that has so much truth to it, even in everyday living. How many of us have fashioned a tool out of some object that was never meant to be used in the new manner we used it? (I’ve been known to use chewing gum to repair a sandal, more than once!)
You may enjoy this garden salad, too.
Well, my daughter wanted a salad the other day and we were short of many salad ingredients, including lettuce. So she got creative and used what was in the fridge and I must say, it was really good!

Looks delicious. I love salads like this. Thank you for sharing.
I just love how vibrantly fresh and healthy this salad recipe is! I almost always have edamame on hand, so it would be a breeze to throw this together! Mmmmm … and what a great suggestion to serve with some wonderfully crusty bread, too! Definitely pinning this to remember (and share)!
Awesome, Shelley! My daughter will be happy to see your comment! :)
That does sound yummy – I love crisp, fresh salads like this!
This looks so fresh! I just love recipes like this that aren’t super heavy!
That’s the perfect word to describer her salad, Angie!
I love edamame but I’m usually too busy eating them all by themselves. This looks delicious.

Gorgeous salad, hats off to the chef. Beautiful colors and textures….
Christina, you’re daughter has given a new name to fusion- This looks delicious! Edamame is such a rarely used salad ingredient!

I’d say you raised your daughter well! Kudos to you for teaching her such great creativity in the kitchen. I actually just made an edamame salad last week. It’s such a versatile ingredient. I love it in salads – just like Denisa!
Thanks, Kelly!
