A Simple Indian Salad

This is a very simple yet refreshing salad during the warm season. The proteins and vitamins from the sprouts and beans provide the nutrition value. The onions help with fighting heat strokes and the tomatoes give the cooling effect.

For Indian meals, it is a perfect combination with a Lentil Curry(Daal) and flat breads. For the meat lovers this is the perfect accompaniment to the Chicken tikka or kebabs. For the diet conscious a bowl full of the salad along with a glass of buttermilk is heavenly.

Don’t feel restricted and have it with any meal of your choice or simply as a mid morning snack.
