Sometimes we may get delayed in eating lunch or dinner, so I also keep a bowl of sprouts in the refrigerator and whenever I feel hungry I just eat a few spoonfuls of sprouts.

Our body needs rich nutrients so eating a few varieties of food or salad may help to provide it. sprouts generally contain high levels of folate, phosphorus, magnesium and vitamin k. So eating sprouts everyday can keep you away from extra supplements.
This is how i prepare my sprouts salad at home:
- I will soak at least 1 bowl of Moth bean in 2 bowl of water for overnight
- In the morning, i strain the existing water and wash it with fresh water
- Once a water gets drained from moth bean, will put in clean white transparent cloth for 2 days
- After 2 days we can see sprouts
- Then , i will add chopped onion, chopped tomato, chopped coriander, shallow fried broccoli and pinch of salt to it
- I eatwith breakfast or i do carry it with my lunch
- If you are carrying it with lunch box do not add onion, it will start smelling so avoid adding on in it
