Bright green and deliciously creamy, this edamame dip is nutritious and super satisfying. You'll want to keep a container of this dip in your fridge to spread on sandwiches and wraps, too.

Have you tried edamame? Edamame beans are delicious, packed full of protein, and rich in vitamins and minerals. In case you didn’t know, edamame beans are actually immature soybeans, or, soybeans in a vegetable state.

You can usually find them in the freezer section of your grocery store, included with other frozen vegetables. Often they are sold in the pod which is inedible but easily removed.

Isn’t this edamame dip a beautiful green? It’s delicious spread on crackers, sandwiches, and wraps or use it as a dip for veggies. This dip is vegan friendly with no dairy products included, and gluten free.

Do you like avocado toast? Avocado toast is basically mashed avocado on a slice of toast. This edamame dip is a great substitute for avocado. A bonus is that it doesn’t turn brown in the fridge like mashed avocado!

This edamame dip would be great on a crostini, too, with diced grape tomatoes, and an extra drizzle of olive oil.

About this dip:

You can make this dip in about ten minutes. I use my food processor to puree edamame beans, scallions, garlic, hot sauce, and sea salt. Then while the processor is running, drizzle in extra virgin olive oil.

That’s it! Scrape it into a bowl and it’s ready to serve. 

Not sure how to pronounce “edamame”? I’ve got you covered! Say it like this: eh·duh·maa·may.

Storage tips:

Put any leftover edamame dip in an airtight container and it should last about five days in your fridge.

    I can vouch for this dip–I got to try it at Rachel’s and it’s very tasty and kind of addictive. But hey, it’s healthy!

    I checked it out and your dip looks so wholesome and fabulous! You are a scrabble player? Me too! Do you play Words with Friends?! I would love to find you there and start a match. The challenge is on my friend and the gauntlet thrown down…so email me your WWF name and I’ll start a game. Happy cooking and want to see more cute toddler pics. Missing those.

      You’re right! The little one hasn’t been making much of an appearance around here lately. I will work on that. I do play Words with Friends, although mine has been acting up lately, all my games keep disappearing! I would love to play you though! My user name is racheldanae.
