Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen edamame, shelled
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen or canned peas
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen lima beans
  • zest and juice of one small lemon

  • 2 Tbsp fresh mint
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
  • 1/4 c extra virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. Cook edamame in boiling salted water about 2 minutes or until tender-crisp. Remove with a wire-mesh strainer, and plunge beans into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside. Return water to a boil; add peas, and cook about 4 minutes, repeating draining process. Repeat with lima beans, cooking about 5 minutes.

  2. Combine lemon zest and juice and next 4 ingredients in a small bowl. Slowly wisk in oil until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Place peas and beans in a medium bowl, and toss with vinegarette. Top with pecorino, and garnish with mint if desised.

  4. Optional: Stir in canned tuna or chicken.
