Whole moong salad is one nutritious salad prepared regularly at my place. Sometimes when I am too lazy to cook lunch for myself, this is just the thing for me.. My hubby loves this for breakfast since this is very quick n easy with some preparations on previous day! Just some sprouted moong and some Indian salad vegetables at hand and its ready.. Whole moong, rich in protein, makes a good salad with other salad vegetables topped with some fresh lemon juice... Here's Whole Moong Salad for Nupur's "W of Indian Vegetables"
