Edamame, Black Bean And Tomato Salad

The other day I was trying to use up some stuff in the fridge and came up with this simple salad recipe. It was so good that I had to share! The salad is a colorful combo of nutrient-packed ingredients. The black beans and edamame add a ton of fiber and protein, making this salad great for a quick and healthy lunch. But it’s also a nice side dish for meat, chicken and fish. If you’ve never had edamame, give it a try. You can find it in the frozen vegetable aisle. Edamame is just a fancy name for immature green soybeans. They have a mild flavor that blends well with other ingredients. Enjoy!

Edamame Salad
1 cup shelled edamame
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
2 Roma tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped red onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt

Mix everything together in a medium bowl. Serve right away or chill in the refrigerator until serving time. Makes 1 to 2 servings.
