Moong sprouts appe

Sprouts are extremely nutritious food .Sprouts can be made from different seeds,beans .Moong sprouts are rich source of protein,thiamin,niacin like nutrients. And sprouts are beneficial food for good digestion and weight loss also ,so I started eating sprouts recently and daily eating plain sprouts for breakfast was getting bored, so I though of making different dishes using these wonderful sprouts.

Morning hours are very busy as everyone in house need to rush for work or school, so I came out with hassle free recipes made from healthy moong sprouts.Sprouts appe is not only quick to make but also no oil recipe.

I have added onions and coriander in it ,but any available vegetable like carrots,cabbage,flowers can be added in these balls by grating them.
