Really liked this salad. Not super filling though. I substituted grapeseed oil for olive oil and went really light on the cilantro.

I really wanted to love this salad. On the plus side -- it looked beautiful! I made it as written except for using olive oil instead of grapeseed. Maybe I got bitter soybeans or something but mine turned out acidic, swimming in dressing with too much of a cilantro taste and an overall bitter aftertaste. My husband took a bite and made a face. I ate about four bites and decided to order something from delivery. Maybe the grapeseed oil adds something that olive oil subtracts. I'm surprised because I love all the ingredients but something was definitely off in the recipe for me.

This was AMAZING and so beautiful! I have a similar recipe which uses avocado instead of edamame but this is more economical and will be a staple in my home! I'm going to make it for a party and think this amount should feed 15 people each a 1/2 cup serving.

I didn't use grapeseed oil but wish I had spent the $8 at the store on it just to see what's so special about it. Still, without the oil, this was delicious and filling. Next time I will double the garlic and add a little extra salt. Those are the only things I would change about this recipe. If you're making this, keep in mind it makes a TON of food. Way more than enough for a family of three!

It was a yummy light but filling salad. I'm one of those people who gets recipes off this site and modifies them to my liking, but I didn't change a thing on this one and wouldn't. It was even better the next day. FYI I found grapeseed oil at Trader Joe's.

Loved this recipe! I was short on time and just threw in the corn and edamame frozen which thawed by the time I ate it and it was great. I also added frozen petite peas which added a hint of sweetness- great lunch!!

This was a HUGE hit!! This was absolutely wonderful. I loved this salad. I made it exact, but I liked the suggestion of adding red onion. I will do that next time. I might add some more veggies too, like zucchini. But, it was spectacular and I've now added it to my cookbook!!!

This salad is delicious. I followed the recipe except for the oil. I subbed olive oil. Next time I will substitute red bell pepper for the crunch and add some red onion for even more color.

Very good, refreshing salad. I didn't find grapeseed oil, so used olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Also used red onion as one reviewer suggested, and grape tomotoes b/c they looked fresher in the store. This will be a regular summer salad for us - thanks!

Excellent! This salad is beyond delicious. I used garlic powder instead of fresh garlic because I don't like raw garlic in my food and skipped the onions. I realized midway through making this that I didn't have any black beans, so I used kidney beans instead. The flavors in this are outstanding and I look forward to making it again. Thanks! :)

This salad was fantastic! Beautiful colors, sweet and crunchy. I used Balsamic vinegar and EVO since I didn't have the other and it was great.A great way to get some soy.

I had a bag of edamame in my freezer that I wanted to use and so I found this recipe. It is fabulous! I switched the tomatoes out for chopped red pepper because I figured they would hold up longer. That's the only change I made - I even went out and found grapeseed oil and I think it made the salad. Our grocery store sells a version of this for $4.99/pound and this recipe beats it 100%

This is a delicious and very healthy appetizer - perfect with Tostito Scoop Chips! If there is any left - toss in a salad. It's a great dish!

I would give this 10 stars if I could. I can't believe I waited this long to review it! Made it for the first time in June, and have made it at least 5 times since. OUTSTANDING flavor combo, and very easily customized. I have tried several variations, and my favorite version includes a handful (maybe 1/3 c) finely diced green pepper, basalmic instead of red wine vinegar (though color is affected if you're entertaining), 1/2 c cilantro, extra light olive oil instead of grapeseed oil (and only 2 TBSP). Thank you, thank you, thank you - I don't believe I'll ever go a summer without making this!

Wow this salad is great!! Thanks so much for submitting it. I am going to make it regularly to have it in my fridge as it is SUCH a healthy snack or side. If you slice the cherry tomatoes it looks really pretty next to the round beans/corn. Thanks again!!

Followed the recipe exactly other than adding an extra clove of garlic (because we like garlic a lot). It actually didn't need the extra garlic clove, and I don't really think that it needed any changes at all. Wonderful recipe and was an absolutely beautiful assortment of colors.

Nice, light, fresh taste! If your family aren't big cilantro fans, you can cut the cilantro in half, as I did - you still get a light lime-cilantro flavour without the herbs being overpowering. I also used olive oil instead of grapeseed, and cut the amount by a third (2 tbsp instead of 3), and it came out great!

One of my favorites! I have made this probably 10 times, using olive oil instead of grapeseed. I brought some to work for lunch and everyone wanted to try it, so I barely got any myself that day! They all wanted the recipe and have made it for their families, even kids love it. The book club loved it too. This is a definite winner; a great vegetarian and gluten-free high protein dish!
