This is a healthy salad made with celery and fenugreek sprouts.
Celery is one low calorie vegetable with amplified health benefits.Some do not prefer the aroma of this vegetable consumed raw.
Considering the fact that the nutrients are not lost even though celery is blanched, steamed,or sautéed,i decided to toss the vegetable in a little oil before adding to this lovely salad.
Continuing to the next healthy ingredient the fenugreek is also a seed loaded with health benefitting properties.
I usually drink fenugreek water in the mornings, and sprinkle the soaked seeds in my garden and get fresh methi leaves often.
This time I decided to store it in the fridge to get the sprouts.When it sprouts in the fridge it has more of a fresh taste.
Soaked fenugreek does not taste bitter and it does not alter the taste when added into any salad.
This type of salad can be consumed by anyone, of any age.Very beneficial for diabetics.
A teaspoon is more than enough to soak in a cup of water for one person .
