Edamame or shelled edamame palya is very easy to make a healthy and delicious dish, it can be for breakfast, lunch or evening snack! 

Shelled edamame, the young soybeans harvested before they mature, offer huge health benefits that make them a valuable addition to any diet. Packed with plant-based protein, they serve as an excellent source of essential amino acids, particularly beneficial for vegetarians and vegans seeking alternative protein sources. Beyond protein, edamame is a nutrient powerhouse, boasting high levels of fiber, folate, vitamin K, manganese, and iron. This nutritional profile contributes to various aspects of well-being, including heart health, blood sugar regulation, and weight management. With its low saturated fat content and cholesterol-lowering properties, edamame supports cardiovascular health. Additionally, its fiber and protein content aids in stabilizing blood sugar levels and promoting feelings of fullness, making it a valuable component of a balanced diet, particularly for individuals managing diabetes or striving for weight loss. Moreover, edamame’s abundance of calcium and vitamin K strengthens bones, and its antioxidant properties help combat cellular damage and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Not only does edamame support physical health, but its fiber content also promotes digestive health by maintaining regular bowel movements and fostering a healthy gut microbiota. Incorporating shelled edamame into meals offers both delicious flavors and a wealth of nutritional benefits, contributing to overall vitality and longevity
