Why take a delicious dip like Hummus and make it out of soybeans? Why not! Aside from the protein, vitamins, and minerals it contains...but have you seen it's beautiful, bright green color? Edamame (ed-uh-mom-ay), or soybeans picked at a younger stage, provide many nutritional components including folate (for you soon-to-be mamas), as well as manganese and copper, which boosts your immune system and keeps your bones healthy and strong.
1/2 cup shelled, cooked Edamame (1 yellow)
1/4 tsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp olive oil
1/8 tsp Himalayan or Sea Salt
1/4 tsp cumin
squirt of lemon or lime juice
1/8 cup (very small bunch) of cilantro
Throw everything into a food processor or blender. Its easier to get out of a food processor, than a blender. Blend for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides with a spatula. Repeat blending and scraping until you come up with a consistency you desire. It will still be a little gritty...but the longer you blend, the smoother it will become. Serve with vegetables, chips, or just on a spoon!
Yields: 1 serving
