Green Channa Sprouts Sabji

I had so much of bread in my house that I was looking for creative ways to use it up. Also I always wanted my kids to have a taste of all kinds of sprouts and it never happened.  I had made this wonderful sprouted channa subzi and we had eaten with sesame semolina bread and it tasted absolutely wonderful.  My kids were very pleased with the Dal of the day – a keeper! I would love to serve this as an appetizer in any party with nice warm semolina bread or toasted pita crisps. It is very healthy and nutritious and no one will have any guilt enjoying it.
