Do you ever rediscover something you previously loved? You knew that you liked it and you never stopped liking it, but you spent some time apart and then forgot how much you really liked it for a while and then you tried it again and it all came rushing back to you how much you really liked it?
That definitely could have been phrased a little better.
What I’m trying to say is that I love edamame, but there was a brief, unintentional intermission in our relationship this past year that ended when my brother in law shared some edamame at a family dinner outing recently. All of a sudden it was oh heyyyy I love edamame! I totally forgot about it for a second there….
And now it’s edamame alldayeveryday and I’m feeling like a whole person again.
Asian spaghetti salad is where it is at you guys. Spaghetti noodles, fresh avocado and cabbage, sliced almonds, carrots, and EDAMAME, all tossed in a sweet and savory sesame ginger dressing you’re going to wonder how you ever lived without.

This yummy salad recipe has been sponsored by Diamond of California. Thanks for letting me work with the brands I love.
really good, but too oily. I’d cut the oil in half next time. Added cucumber and it was great.
So different, so easy, so delicious
Yo amo todas sus recetas.Son faciles y deliciosas ! Gracias
I made it and everyone enjoyed it!
but it’s too greasy – i’d probably cut the oil in half or less.
also, your times are unrealistic and you never mention cooking the edamame.
This salad dressing is DELICIOUS. I have made it SEVERAL times. I haven’t made the speghetti part but the dressing is awesome on a salad.
Hi Cathy! I am so happy to hear that you LOVED this salad dressing! I also have used it on multiple different kinds of salads. Glad that you love it! Thanks!
Hey,

Best,

This recipe looks very tasty, but I don’t typically like cold dishes. How do you think this would do served hot, like a lo mein?
YUMM! That would be delicious!
I love this! It’s like a healthier version of lo mein with so many fun add-ins that usually don’t come in takeout options. Can’t wait to try it 🙂
hey girl this looks so yummy!
