Instructions

  • Grab all your veggies and shredding stuff, get your chopping board ready and set out the pressure cooker.
  • Toss the edamame into the pressure cooker with a splash of water, close the lid, lock the valve, and bring to pressure.
  • Steam the edamame for 2 minutes once pressure is up, then quick release. Meanwhile, chop and prep all veggies into a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk peanut butter with rice vinegar, lime juice, maple syrup, sesame oil, sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and water until smooth.
  • Drain edamame and toss all ingredients together with the dressing, then let sit 5–10 minutes for flavors to meld.
  • Top with fresh herbs, peanuts, sunflower seeds, and toasted ramen noodles just before serving.

Notes

Use pre-shredded coleslaw mix to save time. Store dressing separately if prepping ahead of time. Toast nuts and ramen noodles in advance for quick assembly.
