Edamame (?sp) wondering if anyone post op eats this? Do you like?

[adargie 159]

I have been reading up on some foods for post op, I am still on liquids till next week then mushy. But was thinking about trying this when I can get to the crunch phase. I see these dry roasted and then I have seen you can eat them steamed. Wanted some opinions. They are high in Protein.< /p>

Heres a roasted version

Trader Joes sells these in their frozen foods and they look yummy.

I'm preop still and loved it as an afternoon snack. I've wondered about if it was a sleeve friendly item. I certainly hope so

They are better than most snack foods. I eat them steamed and shelled in salad and I eat the steamed in pod as a snack. I will eat too many of the dry roasted, so I don't buy them.

I eat the steamed ones...when I can wrangle them away from my Grandkids! They r yummy!!

I love them both steamed and dry roasted. Sometimes I get so busy at work that I can forget to snack like I know I should, so the dry roasted come in handy in a pinch. I keep a small bag in my purse in case I get stuck in traffic, too.

I love them bit some people don't like the fact that they have soy in them.

Specifically, they are soy Beans. Edamame is the Japanese name for them. In Japan, they are the bar snack of choice, kinda like pretzels or peanuts here.

I prefer them steamed with a bit of garlic, olive oil, cracked pepper and sea salt. YUM!

[adargie 159]

Looks like I will be putting these on my list of food once I can have them! Going to try them both ways.

[LipstickLady 25,682]

I've been to quite a few restaurants that have them on the appetizer menu. I order them as my dinner. Usually costs about $3. AWESOME!

I buy the frozen bowls of them at costco, 12 to a pack and we steam them and sprinkle with salt and cayenne pepper. Nom nom nom. We used to eat them instead of popcorn while watching a movie, because they take a while to enjoy, and fewer calories and carbs than buttered popcorn.

Can't wait to get to enjoy them again.

I eat these daily for a snack. They also have spicy ones. I eat the steamed as well.

They are awesome, but do not have to be dry. melons are excellent Snacks this time of year, and cucumbers with a tart yogurt are most awesome. Hummus, seaweed, nom, nom. dates pureed and a dollop on a frozen peach sliced thin is just perfect in the heat.
