Edamame are high in protein and fiber, and are very digestible. They are found in the freezer section of most supermarkets.

2 Tbsp orange juice
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, chopped
1/2 tsp ginger root, fresh, peeled and grated
1/2 tsp table salt
1 cup(s) roasted chicken breast, diced (chopped)
2/3 cup(s) edamame (shelled), cooked, (fresh green soy beans)
1/2 medium avocado, pitted, peeled, and diced

Whisk together the orange juice, lime juice, cilantro, ginger, and salt in a serving bowl until blended. Add the chicken and soybeans; toss to coat. Add the avocado; toss gently to mix. Yields 1 cup per serving. Good as pita/bread filling or over greens.

Cook frozen edamame according to the package directions. If you purchase them fresh, steam them for about 15 minutes, then pop them out of their pods (discard the pods). You might like to cook extra to serve as a tasty snack.
