- ½ cup fresh cilantro

- 2 tbsp green onions minced
- ½ tsp salt more to taste
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper more to taste if needed
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Place edamame in the bowl of a food processor and process to a paste, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. This should take less than a minute.

Notes
- Fresh Ingredients: Use the freshest ingredients you can for the best results and best flavor.
- Using A Blender: A blender also works, but depending on your blender, you may need to stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula a little more often.
- Taste Test: After blending the ingredients, taste a little and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Adjust Other Ingredients: Feel free to increase or decrease other ingredients to achieve the texture you want. If this is your first time making guacamole without avocado, you may want to follow the recipe as written and adjust it next time if needed.
- Serve Right Away: This dip is best served immediately in a medium bowl or a small serving bowl, but will last 5 days in the refrigerator. It really is the perfect party dip!
