Day 17 - Soy Beans

I think there is so much talk about soy product that I sometimes forget that they are actually a bean


However today, in my ignorance, I purchased about a 1lb of soybeans for $2.00 at the farmer's market.  Does anyone have any good ideas of what to do with these?  Can I just eat them plain?

Otherwise today I ate leftover chicken burritos for lunch and our roommate was nice enough to take us (me and DH) out to dinner after we went biking.  DH made him a new computer... DH is good at that kind of thing.

    There are a couple recipes on allrecipes.com using soybeans... (I love this site because you can usually trust the rating system to tell you which recipes to try and which to avoid).

    I don't have any personal experience with soybeans though. Good luck!

  3. Soy beans can be used to replace just about any type of bean in a given recipe and will still taste exceptionally good. My favorite snack, though, is edamame and all that requires is salt and water to boil the beans in! :)

    As far as recipes are concerned here are a few links that I hope will be helpful:
