Salad, Love or Hate
I love salads, my husband too likes a good salad. But its not the case with my kids. My younger is fine with occasional munching of cucumber and carrot sticks, but not a hearty bowl of salad. I should be happy that my younger fella is ok with cukes and carrot stick, my elder one would run a mile hearing the names of it. I m glad they eat enough veggies in their daily meal, so no fuss!
Since it is just me and my hubby I do have a free hand to experiment. Most loved salad at home is pasta salad, no doubts on that, even the boys are fine with this, i tell it is dry pasta and they eat. My personal favorites are this quinoa salad and bulgur salad colorful and hearty.
If you are looking for a Mexican style salad, check this rice and mixed bean salad with simple dressing. Indian household always has a pack of soaked chickpeas or black eyed peas in the freezer, so it is easy to make these quick and filling chickpea salad, blackeyed peas salad , black chana salad.
Most of the salads mentioned above qualify to be a meal as such, when paired with a bowl of warm soup or a hearty cheese toast.
Ingredients for the Mango Sprout Salad
- Mango : use raw mango for the salad. I have used the normal raw mango which we get year round here in supermarkets. I would really love to try this with tothapuri variety mango, it has a good taste of sweetness and sourness.
- Sprouts : Green moong sprouts, i have used store bought sprouts. I have used raw sprouts in the recipe, you can also steam the sprouts for 5-8 minutes and use in the recipe.
- Other vegetables : I have used a cucumber, carrot along with some fresh coconut in the recipe.
- Seasonings : I have added a tadka of mustard seeds, green chilies with curry leaves to the salad.
- Toppings : I have added a handful of crunchy peanuts and pomegranate arils to the salad.
