Can I make this vegan by adding agave instead of honey?
Dawn says
I prefer 100% pure maple syrup instead of the honey to make this vegan. One research study suggests there are more antioxidants in 100% pure maple syrup than agave. xx
Anne Bonilla says
I am allergic to soy. Could I substitute cooked fish for the edamame?
DJ Blatner, RDN says
Yes! Love the idea of swapping proteins here to fish like shrimp, salmon, or tuna. It will taste great.
