how many protein in sprouts - #23838

Raj

I am trying to figure out how many protein in sprouts because I’ve been on this health kick lately. I've been reading a lot about how great sprouts are for you and all, but honestly, I just don’t know if they actually pack a decent protein punch. I started adding them to my salads and even making these smoothie things with them, thinking I’m doing something good, but like... how many protein in sprouts can I actually count on? My friend said they’re a superfood and all but I’ve also read they’re mostly water and fiber? I’m not really clear how that translates to protein. Last week, I bought a ton of alfalfa and mung bean sprouts. I mean, I love the crunch! But like, if I’m making them a staple, should I be looking at other protein sources too? I saw something online saying there’s around 3 grams of protein per cup, but then another article claimed way less. What’s the deal with how many protein in sprouts exactly? Could someone break it down for me? Like, is it really worth my time and money, ya know? I want to optimize my diet, but I don’t want to feel tricked into thinking I’m making healthy choices when I could be missing out on better protein sources.
