Garlic edamame is a rather addictive, yet nutritious and healthy recipe you’ll want to make often. So much better than chips, or unhealthy snacks, it’s also a great option as an appetizer.

Do you want to know how to make these at home? This garlic edamame recipe is so simple, there’s really nothing to it!

My friend Debbie and I discovered them whilst sitting poolside at the spa at Terranea Resort and Spa, here in Los Angeles. We devoured them so quickly and both were immediately smitten with these salty, delicious morsels!

The food is spot on at Terranea, and we later had garlic shishito peppers, which were also rather addictive!

Edamame are an excellent choice for healthy snacking as they are high in protein and are low in calories. In fact, my daughter created an edamame salad many years ago, which we still enjoy.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as Debbie and I did!
