Healthy Roasted Parmesan Edamame recipe. Frozen edamame is baked in the oven to make a quick and easy appetizer or snack idea.
Wanna know a secret?
Every time John isn’t home for dinner, I will just eat snacks for dinner. It’s bad, but I don’t see the point in cooking for one!
So when this happens, I usually end up eating a huge bowl of popcorn with some cookies. Or snack on all of the baked goods that I have made that week.
Tonight, it looked a little different. I promised John I would be healthy without his supervision tonight. So I made myself this healthy snack.
At least I am making progress towards an actual healthy meal!
To be honest, I am kinda scared for when he goes away to Vancouver for a year next year. What will I do with myself? Will I actually be able to make myself a real dinner? Just warning you, you may see a lot of snack recipes popping up on the blog next year.
But if it ends up being as healthy as this Roasted Parmesan Edamame, is that really a bad thing? I mean, I could eat this stuff all day. It is truly addicting!
Seriously you guys. You need to make this. All you need are 5 ingredients:
- frozen edamame
- olive oil
- Parmesan
- salt
- pepper
That’s it!! And the salt and pepper don’t really count as ingredients, right? So this is basically a 3 ingredient snack idea.
If that doesn’t send you running to the kitchen to make this, I don’t know what will!
I wanted to save some for lunch tomorrow, but who am I kidding? There is no way that this would last for more than 10 minutes around me. Also, it is edamame, so it is healthy, right? No guilt eating the whole pan!
Except for maybe all of the Parmesan that I am consuming. But to be honest, you probably eat more cheese on one slice of pizza than you do this entire pan. So think of it as a healthier version of pizza. Minus the gluten and the heavy feeling in your stomach after eating the whole thing.
Because you know if I had a pizza in front of me, nothing would stop me from eating the whole thing.
Good thing I opted for this edamame snack instead!

Edamame is one of my favorite things to snack on!! Such a delicious and nutritious snack!
Me too! Thanks Camila 🙂
I LOVE edamame, but I have never roasted it before! I am definitely going to have to give this a try!
You need to! It is one of my favourite ways of eating it.
I love edamame beans and these with that lovely coating look so moreish, I am sure the whole plate will be empty before long.
Haha, it really didn’t take long 😉
I am so glad I am not the only one that just lives off snacks when alone. I can never be bothered to cook for just me, snacks are far more fun.
Omg, yes! I am not alone!
Edamame is one of my husband’s favorite snack foods. I think he will love this version of them.
It is one of my favourite ways to eat it!

I am always in desperate need of healthy snacks 🙂
