1 cup frozen shelled edamame
2/3 cup salted cashews
1 cup wonton strips

Add all dressing ingredients to a blender, except red pepper flakes, pulse until ginger and garlic are finely minced. Season with salt to taste and add red pepper flakes and pulse just to stir in. Pour into an airtight container and chill until ready to serve.
