  4. Season: Stir in a pinch of sea salt and black pepper before transferring to a bowl.

Chef's Tip

Nutritional Insight: Plant-based edamame protein paired with almond fats creates a low-GI synergy that effectively delays gastric emptying to mute food noise during GLP-1 therapy. Culinary Hack: Flash-fry the smoked paprika in the olive oil for 10 seconds before blending to dramatically intensify the smoky depth.
