Garlicky Edamame (Ww 2 Points)

Tee Angel's Note:

Edamame, the Japanese word for soybean, grow in clusters on bushy branches. To retain freshness, soybeans are usually parboiled and grozen. Edamame, a rich source of protein, have been enjoyed for over two thousand years in East Asia

Delicious!! I added more salt and cayenne for my family's taste. Be careful not to overcook or they turn out dry (found out the hard way). Edamame is one of the few veggies all my family will eat so I will be making this again. Thanks.

Made this as a side dish last night. Be careful on the cayenne pepper. I added more than a pinch and it was too spicy. Other than that, delicious!

These were so delicious and became the focal point of a point-friendly meatless meal. I used jarred garlic which is less aromatic and had to used about 50 percent more - as has been the case in other dishes made with this ingredient. This will be a fuss free staple for me.
