Ingredients

• 1/2 pound thickly sliced reduced-fat, reduced-sodium deli roast beef

• 1 tablespoon seasoned rice wine vinegar
• 2 scallions, green parts only, thinly sliced (1/3 cup)

2. 2. Add the cooked and cooled edamame and next 4 ingredients (through vinegar) to the bowl, and toss the ingredients well to coat them with the dressing. Cover and chill 20 minutes.
