Edamame, Feta & Mint Smash
A salty, bright snack that works on cucumber rounds, seed crackers, or straight from the bowl. Edamame adds protein and fibre, feta brings flavour so you need less of everything else, and mint plus lemon keep it fresh enough for the afternoons when savoury sounds better than another sweet option.
