Ingredients

    1 C frozen edemame, shelled and thawed
    1 Tb extra virgin olive oil
    1 Tb pesto (I like Classico brand)
    1 Small onion, roughly chopped
    3 oz grape tomatoes (appx. 12), sliced in half
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp pepper
    2 Tb fresh basil, chopped

Directions

1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tomatoes and sear, appx. 2-3 min.
2. Add onions, salt, pepper, and garlic. Stir frequently, so garlic doesn't burn. Allow the onions to caramelize, appx. 5 minutes.
3. Add edemame, fresh basil, and pesto. At this point the tomatoes will have burst further, allowing the juice to flow. Stire frequently to develop a sauce and cook the edemame, appx. 3 min.
4. When warmed, remove from heat and serve as a side dish or over crusty bread.

Serving Size: Make approximately 3 1/2 C servings
