Moong Sprouts Salad/Sundal Wrapped in Tortillas

Another session of Srivalli's Blogging Marathon has started with a new look and it is for 3 days for 4 weeks with different themes instead of 7days for 2 weeks.For this week I chose kid's evening snack theme.

Moong sprouts are a good source of protein and today's recipe is a healthy wrap in which moong sprout salad or sundal is stuffed with some ketchup to make it more tasty.

The salad can be eaten as such,sometimes if I want to feed my kid a filling snack,wrap it in a .roti or tortillas or make a sandwich with wheat bread slice.

Moong sprouts can eaten raw but my kiddo doesn't like the raw taste so I steamed it and make and veggies of choice can be added.I served the wrap along with a glass of watermelon juice.
