Tomato-Edamame Grilled Cheese
Ingredients
  • 1
    bulb garlic
  • 1
    teaspoon canola oil
  • 1
    ounce frozen shelled sweet soybeans (edamame)
  • 1/4
    cup lemon juice
  • 1/2
    teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/3
    cup snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
  • 8
    slices whole grain bread
  • 1
    tomato, thinly sliced
  • 4
    ounces reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese, sliced
Directions

1. For spread preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Slice off top 1/2 inch of garlic bulb. Leaving bulb whole, remove loose outer layers. Place bulb, cut side up, in custard cup. Drizzle with oil. Cover with foil; roast 15 minutes until soft. Cool.

2. Meanwhile cook soybeans according to package directions. Drain; rinse with cold water. Squeeze 3 garlic cloves from bulb into food processor. Wrap and refrigerate remaining garlic for other use.

3. Add cooked soybeans, lemon juice, 1/4 cup water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cumin to garlic in food processor. Cover and process until smooth. Transfer to bowl. Stir in parsley.

4. For each sandwich spread 2 tablespoons soybean mixture on two slices whole grain bread. Top one bread slice with 1 ounce thinly sliced cheese and tomato slices. Add second bread slice. On nonstick griddle or nonstick skillet toast over medium-high heat, turning once. Makes 4 sandwiches plus 1 cup spread.

Is this recipe correct? One oz edamame? That doesn't sound right.
