Healthy Vegetable and Sprouts Lunch Salad

Treat yourself to this tasty and healthful salad, which is satiating enough to have for lunch.



From sprouted moong and cooked masoor to greens and veggies like peppers, zucchini and pumpkin, this Healthy Vegetable and Sprouts Lunch Salad brings together a vast and exciting assortment of ingredients.

These ingredients have varied textures, which combine beautifully in each mouthful! The veggies and mushrooms are sautéed slightly with salt and pepper, which helps the seasoning to seep in and improve the flavour. However, they retain their crunch and are not cooked till soft. This helps to retain their freshness.

This wholesome salad, which is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C , can be carried to work as lunch. Just take the peppy, honey-mustard flavoured dressing in a separate container and toss it together with the rest of the ingredients just before you eat it.

This salad is also great for athletes , so it can be carried along to consume after a workout.
