    Buying dry mung beans and soaking is a better option than using canned. If you soak a little too much, then try sprouting the extra and throw it into salads! In fact you could sprout everything and use them in this recipe. It's also important to source local organic grass fed/finished beef. Make sure the fat you are eating in this meal is of the highest quality.
