I like sprout salads with colorful veggies and my favorite fruit, Pineapple. I am using Green moong sprouts in this salad but you can always use lentil sprouts, black chickpea sprouts, or any other sprout. Smaller legumes are the right choice for this kind of salad recipe. The combination of vibrant, colorful veggies and Pineapple is pretty flavorful and nutritious. I add roasted peanut and pumpkin seeds to the salad for crunchy taste and loads of goodness.
