Sprouting



My new found love! Sprouts are packed full of nutrients ready to unleash in our bodies.  This mix includes mung beans, lentils, adzuki beans, and wheat sprouts.  Try one at a time or do them all together!  They are easy toppers for salads, sandwiches, wraps, and by themselves.  My kids love them too!

Directions:
Soak your bean/seed/legume in plenty of water overnight.  Pour into sprouting trays and cover with dish cloth.  Rinse twice a day.  Within a few days you'll have beautiful white tails growing on your sprouts.  Serve.  Place leftover sprouts and a paper towel (to absorb moisture) in an air tight container and refrigerate. Lasts 3-5 days. 

p.s.  What a great way to store 'live' food in your food storage pantry!
