This Salad bowl is pure perfection: Protein-rich mung beans, filling roti, and fresh healthy salad. This bowl is perfect for lunch, dinner, and even for meal prep.
What I love most about working from home, is that you can have a proper homemade lunch. This week I felt like a healthy salad bowl. And while I love veggies and appreciate them very much, salad seems quite boring to me sometimes. In this situation, I need to convince myself with some special components that make it more exciting. For this salad bowl, I’ve chosen homemade roti and some mung beans. It was soo good!
I hope you like it! What is your favorite bowl combination currently?
Little Note: Roti is also a delicious sweet dish with some jam!

Instructions
Prepare Mung Beans:
