different kinds of sprouts
Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera) are annual members of the Brassicacae vegetable family that includes broccoli, cabbages, cauliflower, collards, kale, radishes and turnips. Like cabbages, most varieties are green, but you may find two cultivars that have reddish-purple sprouts.
Edible sprouts such as alfalfa, broccoli, mung bean, and radish sprouts, are excellent sources of antioxidants, essential amino acids, and a handful of nourishing vitamins and minerals.
