Edamame!

Protein rich and a big help for appetite suppressing.
this morning I had a handful of these with my vitamins and didn't feel nauseous like I usually do if I take them on an empty stomach. And I have had more energy and strength then I normally do.
These are great! I also ordered these no calorie noodles called Miracle noodles.
that have no nutritional value except a little fiber which we all could use more of.
I'm excited to try them since I stay far away from anything starchy. They are gluten and soy free for those of you who have allegies. You can look them up at www.miraclenoodles.com


Here's some more info on Edamame.

Edamame" are edible, green, immature soybeans.
They're one of my favorite foods to recommend eating.
That's because they're a good source of complete protein, high in fiber, a source of essential omega 3 fat, and rich in calcium, iron, zinc and B vitamins.
Plus they taste good!
You can buy green soybeans three ways:
out of the pod ("shelled")
in the pod ("unshelled")
dry roasted
