- "This salad is the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and crunchy."
- "I love the addition of edamame, it gives the salad a nice protein boost."
- "This is a great salad to make ahead of time and it keeps well in the refrigerator."
Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have edamame on hand, you can substitute with another type of cooked bean, such as chickpeas or black beans.
- Feel free to experiment with different salad dressings. A simple vinegar-based dressing or a creamy Asian-style dressing would both work well.
