I see edamame as basically a cousin to lima beans. But lima beans did not make the list.

Looks amazing. I have some Brussels sprouts in the fridge. This looks like a great recipe to try with them. Thank you!

Edamame? Soy beans in the pods. Often found at Asian restaurants, steamed and sprinkled with coarse salt. They’re really good. You can buy them in the frozen food section these days. Not hard to find.

Thanks for posting the recipe. I adore roasted Brussels sprouts, but the additions sound really good.

This article says frozen spinach has four times the nutrient value of fresh spinach.

Nice I’m going to try this one. My mom says I was her best eater and would pretty much eat anything she put on my plate. The only vegetable I don’t really like his carrots and even then they’re not bad when cooked and soaked in butter and honey.
