Ingredients

1 cup shelled edamame
1 cup spinach, well washed
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup cream cheese
Salt and black pepper

Steps:

Bring a large pot water to a boil, add the edamame. For the last minute of cooking, add the spinach. Drain and plunge into a ice-water bath. Press out as much of the moisture as possible.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh edamame if it's available. If you're using frozen edamame, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
You can use any type of milk or yogurt in this recipe, but for a richer flavor, use whole milk or Greek yogurt. If you're using plant-based milk or yogurt, make sure it's unsweetened.
If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the edamame with a fork or potato masher.
