Edamame is a favorite ingredient in our kitchen. We love to snack on edamame in the shell steamed with some sea salt. Anytime I can add the shelled edamame in a recipe for added protein and texture, I will. This Crispy Garlic Parmesan Edamame is a favorite afternoon snack that holds me over before dinner. A delicious protein-packed snack that is delicious and healthy!
I love edamame especially because it is a complete / high-quality plant protein source. That is a huge bonus for vegetarians and vegans that rely on plant-based proteins!
The crispy texture comes from the parmesan cheese melting over the edamame and creating delicious clusters of cheesy garlic seasoned edamame beans. Yum!
