Hi Friends,
In most households, mornings are probably the most frenzied time of the day. Preparing breakfast, packing tiffins, getting ready for work, blah blah. In these extremely jam-packed mornings we rush things to reach our destinations on time; forget about spending time to prepare healthy breakfast or even think about the health benefits of breakfast. Well, to make that task easier for you here is a recipe that demands lesser dodging in the morning and provides all required nutrients to keep you going for the whole day.
So, let’s start with a new breakfast regimen. I have been eating this breakfast since last week. That was a change from my normal breakfast habit of milk products and I have been liking this change a lot :-). Also, it was recommended by my dietician so I assume that the recipe and its health benefits are trusted :good: .
Highlight: This recipe requires 2 days of soaking.

How to make Protein rich sprouts-
– For a breakfast of 2 persons, take 5 spoons of black channe,5 spoons of green
lentils and 5 spoons of white soyabean.
– Soak them in water for two days. In the interim keep changing the water after
every 8 hours to remove the frothy layer that smears on top.
– On the morning of third day cut a tomato, half onion and few green chilies
(according to taste). Place the saucepan on the stove, put half a tea spoon of
olive oil; you can use any cooking oil.
– When the oil gets hot, put cumin seeds, tomato, onion and green chillies.
Put salt as per your taste buds. Stir all these ingredients for a while and
then add the sprouted lentils.
– Heat the mixture until the water gets evaporated and your breakfast
is ready. Before serving, one can also put small cheese cubes, soaked almonds
& few raisins. If you like tomato ketch-up then add a spoon of that too.

Health benefits of Protein rich sprouts-
Protein rich- Vegetarian are left with little or no choice to consume protein rich foods. Before this regimen, I used to munch raw paneer all the time. When paneer was about to reach its saturated level (got bored of eating the same thing everyday) I jumped on to sprouts. Sprouts is a highly recommended diet for vegetarians as they contain a wholesome pack of proteins minus the fat, cholesterol and calories.
Nutrient rich- Sprouts provide Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin B1,Vitamin B6 and Vitamin K. They also provide minerals such as Iron,Phosphorous,Magnesium, Potassium, Manganese, and Calcium. Sprouts also have dietary fiber and Omega-3 fatty acids.
Easily digestible- The high quantity of enzymes present in sprouts makes them easily digestible. Good for people with bloating or digestion problems.
Helps in weight loss- As sprouts are high in fiber and low in calorie so people who are looking for weight loss must include them in their diet. It makes stomach feel fuller for a longtime.
