Raw Carrot Salad with Edamame is my version of the viral salad with a higher protein Asian flavored twist. Made with shelled edamame you can buy frozen at your grocers', a little soy sauce, olive and sesame oils, seasoned rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes, this raw carrot salad is tasty, nutritious, and is super quick and easy to make!
