This delectable and filling edamame salad is just as well hot or cold! Even better, your eaters that turn their noses to broccoli will be digging into this salad thanks to the combo of ingredients and creamy “peanut” sauce! Broccoli’s high amounts of sulforaphane (a cancer-fighting plant compound) are linked to significantly reduced risks of breast cancer. Cheers to your healthy breast journey!
