The sprouts add volume without a lot of calories, so you get to eat more! The pepitas also give it a unique texture.
Serve this with veggie strips (bell peppers, carrots, cucumber slices, etc.) and eat it for lunch.

2 tablespoons Lime/Lemon Juice
1 cup Raisins, soak

1 tablespoon Ginger, Grated
Sprout the fenugreek. (alternately
you may rinse 1/2 cup fenugreek seeds thoroughly in
tap water. Soak them
overnight in 2 cups water. You
can drink the soak water in the morning. (As per Ayurveda, 5000 year old Indian
Medicine System,
drinking water in which fenugreek seeds are soaked
is good for Diabetics, it clears toxins
and helps in
detoxification. Fenugreek sprouts are also good for
nursing mothers as it helps in milk formation).
Sprout the 1/2 cup Mung beans (As
per Ayurveda, Mung Bean sprouts are tri-doshic/balancing
for all body types)
until the roots are at least
seed length.
Once the sprouts are done mix with chopped cucumber
(1 medium), 2 medium size chopped tomatoes and a cup
of grated
carrot. Soak 1 cup raisins for at least
3-4 hrs and add it to the above mixture along with
juice of 2 limes. Add 1/2 cup
of cilantro, 1
tablespoon of grated ginger (approx 1 inch piece)
and refrigerate.
Be creative with vegetables. You can also add onion,
fresh grated coconut, green chillies, bell peppers,
chopped apples etc.
You can also add Bengal Gram
(Chick pea) sprouts or any other sprouts you like.
Have fun.

Bean Sprout Salad
2 tablespoon Sesame seeds
1 pound Fresh bean sprouts
thoroughly washed
and drained
3 med. Garlic cloves
peeled and minced
2 med. Scallions −− trimmed & minced
1 1" cube ginger
peeled and minced
2 tablespoon Oriental sesame oil
1/3 cup Soy sauce
2 tablespoon Cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Mirin (sweet rice wine)
2 teaspoon Light brown sugar
1 teaspoon Spicy sesame oil
Makes 4 to 6 Servings Fresh bean sprouts are a must for this
recipe from
China's Hunan province.
The canned variety don't have the requisite crispness. Keep a
close eye on
the toasting sesame seeds so they don't burn.
PREHEAT OVEN TO 300F. Toast the sesame seeds by spreading them
over the
bottom of a pie tin. Roast for 12−to−16 minutes, stirring often,
until they
are golden. The seeds can be toasted in advance and stored in an
airtight
container. Place the bean sprouts in a large heatproof bowl and
set it aside.
In a medium−size skillet set over moderately low heat, stir−fry
the garlic,
scallions and ginger in the oil for 2 to 3 minutes, until they
are limp. Add
all the remaining ingredients, increase the heat to moderate,
then boil the
mixture, uncovered, for 1 minute to slightly reduce the liquid.
Pour the
warm dressing over the bean sprouts, toss well, then cover
the bowl and
chill the salad for several hours. Toss again before serving.

Recipe for "Mung bean Soap?" for bathing
(found on the internet)
Sounds like fun!!!
Mix a little mung bean flour with water and use this paste
instead of soap. It smells like freshly cut grass and
doesn't
dry out the skin like soap. It is tridoshic and
especially good for sensitive skin and conditions such as
athletes foot.
You can buy mung bean powder, or flour, from some Indian
grocery stores. In India they mix a little turmeric with
this
paste and use it as a face wash, though I am a little
wary of using turmeric on my skin for fear of looking
jaundiced! If
you want to try this be sure to wash it off
quickly.
Thought from Glenda: Use the mung bean sprouts (live food)
and dehydrate them to make the flour.

What are Mung
Beans ?
Vigna radiata is a member of the Fabaceae (pea) family.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mung_bean
The 18 to 36 inch tall mung bean plants produce clusters of 2
to 8 slender, 3-4 inch long, black, slightly fuzzy pods with
very small green seeds. Each pod may contain as many as 15 small
oval seeds depending on cultural conditions. The mung bean is an
ancient crop of Asia, where there are many seed sizes, shapes
and colors. Mung been sprouts are produced domestically from
green seeded cultivars. The mung beans' ancestors are annual
plants with both short and long day cultivars, however, domestic
cultivars are primarily temperature sensitive rather than
photoperiod sensitive. |
