mung bean sprouts

jmasterson

people keep talking about sprouting their mung beans themselves. What’s wrong with buying sprouts in the store? Are they not raw?

Sure, either way, you can buy them. They’re raw. I just like to sprout them myself.

In the store, they tend to be over-sprouted. Many home sprouters like the way they taste better with just small roots. Also, they’re super cheap to sprout yourself.

I just sprouted my first batch of mung sprouts last week and they are great! I put a handful on my spinach salads and even threw some in my green smoothie this morning…yum :)

Plan B

Yes i avoid store bought sprouts and do it myself becuase im a do-it-yourself kinda guy really.. nothing against store bought as long as its organic.

I do this: handful of mung, green lentils, red lentils and kamut in a big sprout jar.. they sprout together about the same time and i blend them up all week for my morning sprout smoothie..
