Sprout & Veggie Salad

This Sprout & Veggie Salad is a refreshing and nutrient-dense salad, perfect for a light meal or a side dish. The crunch of fresh vegetables combined with the protein-rich sprouts creates a satisfying texture and flavor. With the subtle heat of cumin and the brightness of lemon juice, this salad is both delicious and easy to prepare.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 100 grams cooked mixed sprouts (moong, black chana, or any preferred mix)
  • 50 grams finely chopped cucumber
  • 50 grams finely chopped tomatoes
  • 30 grams finely chopped carrots
  • 20 grams finely chopped bell pepper
  • 15 grams finely chopped red onion
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped coriander leaves
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon roasted cumin powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Procedure:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the sprouts, cucumber, tomatoes, carrots, bell pepper, and red onion.
  • Add coriander leaves, lemon juice, roasted cumin powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the vegetables and sprouts evenly.
  • Let the salad sit for a few minutes for the flavors to blend, then enjoy as a snack or side.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • This salad offers a wholesome mix of protein, fiber, and vitamins, making it a balanced choice for any meal. Sprouts, especially moong and black chana, are high in plant-based protein and essential amino acids, which support muscle health and energy.
  • The fiber from both sprouts and vegetables aids in digestion and helps maintain satiety. Cucumbers, carrots, and bell peppers provide hydration, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, which promote skin health, immune function, and cell repair.
  • Cumin supports digestion and metabolism, while lemon juice enhances iron absorption and adds a boost of vitamin C. Low in calories and high in nutrients, this salad is ideal for maintaining a balanced diet and supporting overall well-being.
