I’ve been trying to be healthier, so I’ve been snacking on edamame. I love the taste and it feels like a good option, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m actually eating more calories than I think. I used to think it was super low-cal, but now I’m not so sure. Does anyone know the exact calorie count for a serving of edamame? And like, is it okay to eat it as a snack or should I be careful?

Edamame is a fantastic, healthy snack! Just one cup (about 155 grams) of shelled edamame packs roughly 188 calories. It’s a great source of protein with about 18.4 grams, plus 8 grams of fat and 13.8 grams of carbs, including 8 grams of fiber. This makes it filling and satisfying. Just keep an eye on portions to avoid excess calories.
