Mixed Sprouts Sandwich is my go-to recipe when I want something healthy but don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen. I discovered this recipe during my health-conscious phase, and it’s stuck with me ever since. The sprouts give it a nutty flavor, while the green chutney adds a fresh kick. It’s simple enough for beginners but tastes like something from a fancy café.
About the Recipe
This sandwich puts a healthy spin on regular grilled sandwiches. The sprouts are lightly cooked and mashed, making them easy to spread and digest. The green chutney adds a burst of flavor, while optional onions and tomatoes bring extra crunch and freshness. It’s a great way to include sprouts in your diet, especially if you’re not fond of eating them plain.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
First, it’s super adaptable – you can use any sprouts you have on hand. The sandwich stays crispy on the outside but soft inside, thanks to the ghee-toasting method. Kids won’t even realize they’re eating something healthy. Plus, it’s a great make-ahead option – prepare the filling in advance and assemble when needed. The combination of sprouts and green chutney creates a perfect balance of flavors.
