Have You Ever Had Edamame?

-
I had never eaten edamame. Edamame is soy beans. These are really good for you because they are high in protein. I was watching my favorite cooking show Trisha's Southern Cooking and there was an episode about healthy eating. This is a recipe for a healthy snack that will keep you filled up between meals without a ton of calories. I made it and Izzie wouldn't stay out of it. And very simple to make. All you do is take a bag of frozen edamame and let it thaw. I haven't been able to find it already shelled so you'll have to shell them. Then you mix the seeds with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Then you mix 1/4 cup parmesan cheese with about 1 teaspoon garlic powder. I used a little more because I love garlic. Sprinkle over the seeds and mix to coat. Then you spread on a cookie sheet and bake at 325 for 10-15 minutes. And that's it! You must try this recipe! You can check it out here on Food Network.

I did it on my stomach, because after 3 children, I have the "pooch". I hate the "pooch". I figured that this wouldn't hurt, so while Hubby was in Washington, I tried it. All you do is put lotion on the body part you are working on. It's preferable to have a lotion with something from the sea in it, like seaweed, kelp, etc, but not absolutely necessary. Put A LOT on. I mean to where it's not soaking in anymore. Then you wrap the body part in plastic wrap. You can either secure it with an ace bandage or do what I did and just tape it. Since I did it around my belly, I just taped it to itself and it stayed in place. Then you go to bed. Whe...
