This Friday KISS would need an oversized stocking to qualify as a stocking stuffer, but it will let you graze on fresh, nutritious greens, grown in the comfort of your own kitchen, in the depths of dormant winter!
We're novices at sprouting, having only experimented once growing wheat grass. After learning how nutritious fresh sprouts are, buying broccoli sprouts at the Billings food co-op, and viewing various blogs, articles and YouTube videos on sprouting techniques, we bought the Easy Sprout Sprouter from The Sprout House. We started the process (which really is quite easy) on Thanksgiving Day, and munched from our first crop of broccoli sprouts on the following Tuesday...
Don't those fresh greens look good against that snowy backdrop?
We've been enjoying them in tossed salads and in tempeh and "tun-not" salad sandwiches.
We bought our organic broccoli sprouting seeds from Mountain Rose Herbs. (No surprise!) So smitten am I with this company and its products that I am now an affiliate. So now if you click on my ads or text links to Mountain Rose Herbs and make a purchase, I'll get a wee commission. Yay! So head on over and do a little shoppin' (and maybe a little sproutin'), why dontcha! :-)
Enjoy your weekend!
P.S. Rift left a comment asking a couple of good questions about sprouting, so I've replied with some additional info and links to several more web sites that have very helpful information about the Easy Sprout Sprouter in particular and sprouting in general. So if you want to learn more, please visit the comments section!
