    air fryer mung beans is an easy snack. We all love to snack whether it is teatime, a journey or simply when we are bored. While snacking helps us pass some time and keep our mind off some stress, it is not that good for our waistline. It does add to those extra pounds slowly and steadily.

    We all have eaten moong beans as sprouts salad and even in pani puri as a filling. You can even make a dal and misal pav out of it.However, that gets boring after a while. Make this recipe for a snack anytime you want and enjoy a protein rich day.This recipe is similar to air fried chana dal and air fried moong dal recipe.
