Beets & Edamame with Almonds

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups cubed cooked red beets* (cooled)
  • 1/2 cups prepared edamame** (shelled and cooled)
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped toasted almonds
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (rice wine vinegar works too)
  • 1/2 teaspoon agave, or to taste
  • Pink sea salt, to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-large bowl, whisk the vinegar, agave, and salt.
  • Gently fold in the beets, edamame, and almonds.
  • Taste, then adjust ingredient amounts to your liking.
  • *To cook the beets, wrap whole beets individually in foil then roast in a 425 oven directly on the middle rack until a knife inserted in the center meets little resistance--about one hour for medium-large beets. Once cool enough to handle, slough off the skin with your fingers then cut into cubes.
  • **To prepare the edamame, boil frozen edamame in their husks in just enough water to cover for 3 minutes, or until tender and warmed though. Rinse under cold water and pop the beans out of their husks.
