Toasted Nori, Sesame, & Ginger Meal Prep Salad (Furikake Edamame Salad)

Hey gang!

After a month-long hiatus, the meal prep salad series is back with a vengeance! This week’s version is loaded with toasted nori, sesame seeds, pickled ginger, edamame, and more—all tossed in a new take on one of my most popular salad dressings to date.

I just got back from a few incredible weeks traveling Japan and this recipe is vaguely inspired by a cabbage slaw I had at a small izakaya tucked into a residential neighborhood in Kyoto. It ended up absolutely blowing away every other dish I ordered that night and I’ve been craving it ever since.

My version is bulked up with chickpeas and edamame to give it an extra kick of protein, plus plenty of veggies for a healthy serving of fiber.

One note: the nori does get a bit wilted as the salad sits, so you may want to leave it out and just sprinkle a little on top when you’re ready to eat.

Macros, a higher-protein version, and a printable recipe card with grocery list can be found at the bottom of this post.

I hope you enjoy!
