Vegan Avocado and Edamame Dip

Avocado and Edamame Dip

For those of you taking part in Veganuary this January and looking for some easy vegan recipes to get you started, my Vegan Avocado and Edamame Dip is a great one to start with. It’s so versatile. I love to serve it with nachos, crudites, or smother on a loaded sweet potato.

How to make this the creamiest Avocado and Edamame Dip

The secret to getting the silkiest, creamiest, smoothest dip is all in the blending. For best results, I like to use a Vitamix or a simple stick blender with a cup at the bottom. Of course, it you don’t have either, you can simply smash with a fork and chop the coriander fine, resulting in more of a smash! Still tastes good though.

Equipment Needed to make this easy vegan dip

This Vegan Avocado and Edamame Dip is super easy to make and you really don’t need any fancy equipment. A blender is ideal, if not a fork will do the job, plus a sharp knife, measuring spoon, spatula and spoon. That’s it!
