Health-conscious party-goers will truly appreciate this salad of edamame and blueberries — two big-time superfoods. And with pecorino cheese and a blueberry vinaigrette in the mix, everyone else will agree it’s a pretty tasty side dish, as well.
What you’ll love most, though, is how convenient the recipe is. Only a fraction of the required time is hands-on. And the tossed ingredients will look and taste just fine even if you have to travel to the gathering.
