#605: Edamame-Black Bean Salad


I absolutely love edamame.  We eat it regularly at our house, so I was super excited to try this recipe when I made our shredded chicken tacos.  This is a nice, hearty veggie side dish.  You have to like black beans and edamame to like this dish, so I loved it.  It was really, really good.  I added some canned corn into it as well...made it even yummier!

1 bag (12 oz) frozen shelled edamame
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained, rinsed    
1 can (8 oz) of Mexi-corn                                     

2 medium plum tomatoes, chopped
1 medium bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
4 medium green onions, sliced (1/4 cup)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup balsamic vinaigrette dressing
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper

In 2-quart saucepan, cook edamame according to package directions; drain and rinse with cold water.

In large bowl, toss edamame with remaining ingredients. Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving.
