I've never had mung beans before but was aware of their great nutritional value, so gave this recipe a shot.

Well, besides being a completely healthy dish that satiates your appetite for several hours, this is an absolutely delicious dish. The wine/vinegar (I actually used both...) plus feta really give the dish a bright taste. I am making it again this weekend for some guests and am doubling the recipe so I have leftovers to take to work.

Another great recipe from Rouxbe. Cheers!

@ Concetta... thanks for the great review of this dish! I've been hesitant to try this dish because I've never had mung beans, but you've inspired me!

I was happy to see the comments reminding me of this salad as it gave me a chance to use fresh mint from the garden. I sprout mung beans for salads regularly and love the crunch they add. This is the first time I have cooked them and they were great. I only used about half of the dressing and served it as a side dish. It got lots of compliments from our guests and it was refreshing to serve something a little different. Also it's a bonus to be able to cook the beans a day ahead.
