nice clean sprouts – with the *tails plucked off*


Bean Sprouts

… cultivated from green mung beans and water

… one of the easiest vegetable to grow – I remember experimenting with it; was good fun

… a common cooking ingredient in most Asian countries, and increasingly become more popular in other parts of the world

unsightly bean sprouts – with *tails* still on...

… it is unfortunately high in natural sugars but it is a good source of dietary fibre, protein, vitamin B6 and various minerals, and a very good source of vitamins C and K, folate, copper and manganese


… a common ingredient in rice paper rolls, with noodles or in a vegetarian stir-fry/side-dish

I love bean sprouts too! :@)

Yea...bit unfortunate about the natural sugars – must be the bean aspect i.e carbs... I'm still gonna eat 'em though! It's so good in rice paper rolls and with noodles! ...and also has lots of vitamins and minerals.

Thanks for popping by Mich

I love them too and won't worry about the sugar aspect as surely there's more good than bad about them! Yum yum.
