Buckwheat is not a wheat at all but a herb, which is good news to those of us with wheat allergies. Add these sprouts to a salad or sandwich to add a light lemony taste and some great colour. These sprouts are rich in vitamin B factors like choline and inositol. Sprouts tend to be high in protein and fiber, and contain vitamins A, C, K, folate, magnesium, phosphorous, zinc, copper, manganese, thiamine, pantothenic acid, calcium and iron.
