Green Breakfast Bowl

Whole Food Love with Chef Cynthia Louise

Some worry that vegetarian and vegan diets might lack sufficient protein. What most people do not know is that sprouts can contain up to 35 percent protein. Adding sprouts to your diet will give you the necessary protein intake required by your body minus the fat, cholesterol, and calories that typically come with animal products.
