I thought I will search some good salad recipes and post them.Meanwhile Iboiled some moong to make moong parathas for my son.Now, to tell you the truth I just don’t like any parathas except aloo parathas. But I always eat whatever I cook for my son, just to  depict a good impression on him, that its not good to fuss about the food But that day I just couldn’t convinced myself to bite on those parathas.I did not had time to make something else. I kept staring at  the boiled moong , still with the same question in my mind  “To eat or not to eat”? Darn… I can’t let them go waste, nor was I ready to give in to those parathas.Thats when Archana’s one D salad hit my brain (ouchh…its still hurting !) So I just threw in together, in a bowl, everything I had in my refrigerator, along with those boiled moong , spiced it up to suit my palate and yo….I was ready with an entry for Archana’s event which called for a protein rich salad Moong beans also called Green gram is a pulse/legume. While pulses are generally high in protein, and the digestibility of that protein is also high, Moong beans also contain good amounts of calcium and Vitamin C.  Cooking does not affect the protein content of this pulse.(source asavadha.com). So I guess Archana , this fits  the bill since 100 gms of moong are supposed to have 3 gms of proteins Print Moong salad Prep time:  5 mins Cook time:  15 mins Total time:  20 mins Serves: 2 Nutritious and quick to make, moong and vegetable salad Ingredients Boiled Moong (better if sprouted) one cup Boiled potato 1 small Boiled beetroot 1small Carrot 1 Lettuce or cabbage leaves  -few Lemon juice 1 spoon Red chilly powder Salt (white or rock salt...I prefer later) Coriander leaves Almonds (optional....I didn't used any,but I have read, its good to add some) Chaat masala powder few pinches Method Wash and soak moong for few hours.Boil them with little water, salt, turmeric ginger, green chillies till just cooked (not mushy) You can use the moong sprouts (much healthier) that are available in food malls or you can wash, soak and then keep the moong wrapped in moist napkin for a day or two till moong sprouts up Mix in salad bowl, the boiled moong and chooped carrots, boiled beetroot, onion, boiled potato, cabbage (either or all of them) Sprinkle  salt, red chilly powder, chaat masala powder, lemon juice, fresh coriander leaves and enjoy 2.2.1
