Broccoli sprouts are live food which it's really good for us. I've only discovered them about a year or so ago and I absolutely love them. My favourite sprouts are now in my fridge on a weekly basis.
The sprouts are crispy, slightly nutty, sweet and a little mustardy, they are such a joy sprinkled over a salad, a breakfast egg on toast, smoked salmon, poached egg, egg benedict or simply as a snack or a simple side salad.
Amazing stuff!!

Really nice recipe. Love the sprouts addition. Truly nice and goes well with almost anything. I’ve also added a handful of walnuts. Delicious
