Inspired by Jillian’s Elegant Bean Dip (which I made, it’s absolutely delish!), I decided to go the dip/pita/veggie route when friends recently came over for dinner. This edamame dip is super simple to make – I’m talking 5 minutes or less – and it’s a refreshing and unexpected alternative to standard appetizer fare. Plus, the bright green color is bound to add a welcomed splash of color to your app spread. Pair it with homemade pita bread!
3 cups edamame, shelled
½ lemon, juiced
¼ cup parsley, minced
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
splash of olive oil
salt and pepper
Place edamame, lemon juice, parsley, a splash of olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic in a food processer and pulse until fully combined. I like my dip a bit chunky, so I only pulse until combined but if you like a smoother dip, continue to blend until you’ve reached your desired level of smoothness. Scoop dip into a bowl and enjoy.
