Mung Bean Sprouts sauteed with spices. Vegan Glutenfree Breakfast

Mung Bean(green gram) sprouts are the go to sprouts for some protein filled breakfast or evening snack in Ma’s home.. and now mine too.

This is the quick stir fry with some spices, and tomatoes.

Method:

Dampen the towel and rinse the beans twice a day. It took 2 days for long sprouts.

One cup of sprouted mung beans boiled in water without salt and drained contains 26 calories and 3 grams of protein. When the mung beans are cooked, the vitamin K content drops to 35 percent of the recommended daily value, while vitamin C remains around 24 percent.
