So this bag of frozen edamame has been forlornly kicking around my freezer for a while-a long while. It was taking up space. When I bought it I'm pretty sure I was thinking of after work snacks or something to snack on while typing or some other snack option. This never came to fruition. It's a big bag and honestly I'm not too into sticking the whole fuzzy pod in my mouth. But I was needing something green-I needed veggies and a pseudo healthy filling one at that. So I started adding veggies I had around to make a "salad." There's no lettuce here-I'm not morally opposed to lettuce, it's just hard to eat, hard to keep fresh and serves no real purpose other than basic ruffage. I have come to the conclusion that I just like to eat the salad toppings-so I've started making all my salads this way-no lettuce. I started with a vinegarette type dressing, but that wasn't really cutting it for me, so I made it creamier by adding sour cream and mayo-although the only photo I managed to take was at the vinegar dressed stage. Which is ok with me-the creamy one was tastier, but uglier too!
