Green Sparkle Salad
From the Vitality Food Feature 'Cool Foods for A Hot Summer'.
This salad is so light and tasty that you may find yourself craving an encore! Sprouts are very cooling and when paired with seafood, this makes a lovely cooling meal when summer is at its peak.
The sprouted mung beans are rich in protein and add a good crunch. The arugula gives a nice bitter note and is a wonderful detoxifying vegetable. The snap peas are rich in b-vitamins and add a lovely sweetness to the salad. (Makes 4 salads.)
Ingredients
- 6 cups bean sprouts (sprouted mung beans)
- 4 cups arugula
- 2 cups snap peas, chopped
- Optional protein boost: top with seafood of choice!
- Dressing:
- 3 Tbsp hummus
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp basil, dried or pesto
1) Combine salad ingredients in large bowl and top with dressing.
