Green salads are great, but it’s nice to mix it up every once in a while. You can’t go wrong with this zingy, crunchy, spicy, savory, sweet, bright, healthful Edamame Noodle Salad. Perfect as a main dish and portable enough as a little something on the go. It’s filling, satisfying, and so charmingly delectable.
