Edamame

One of my favorite snacks is edamame. Now you can go out and buy the immature soy beans and go through the whole cooking and cooling process or you can just go to the grocery store and buy it frozen. I usually pick up a bag at my local Trader Joe's for $1.99. I like a little extra flavor to my edamame so I'll pour the pods in a bowl and douse them liberally with lemon juice and salt and put the bowl in the fridge to thaw out. After they have soaked overnight the tang of the lemon juice and salt really seeps in. You can also dump the edamame on a plate and nuke them in the microwave with the salt/ lemon concoction on it for a quick snack.
