What all do you sprout? Do you eat sprouts in anything other than salad?

[Juicerguy]

Just curious about what different kinds of things people sprout here? Also am wondering what ways you eat sprouts other than in a salad? Thank you!

I sprout flax, millet, clover, radish and dandelion. I do mostly eat them on salads or just graze on them plain. I like millet sprouts in place of pasta. I have only used a tomato based sauce so far, but I bet you could find a raw alfredo recipe. The trick is to turn off the heat to the pasta sauce before it cooks it. Just get it warm.

Lentils, mung beans, adzuki beans, peas, chickpeas, millet, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, wheat (grass), barley (grass), rye (grass), oats (grass), spelt (grass), kamut (grass), flax, chia seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, chestnuts, walnuts, fenugreek, alfafa, clover, and lots of other green and weed sprouts. The variety is almost infinite.

I just started sprouting. I have lentils (easiest) eat them in salads. Wheat berries for breads. Sunflower seeds for smoothies. I just had to throw some away I left them too long. 4 days they got some brownish red spots. Sunflower seeds I sprout and make milk but after 1-2 days.

Nori rolls with carrots avacado and alfalfa sprouts.

Enjoy your sprouts they are my new love. I am just learning how to do it.

Lentils, alfalfa (my absolute favorite), clover, fenugreek, rye, sunflower seeds, amaranth, quinoa, oat groats. Getting radish, flax, buckwheat soon. I have chia but I don't sprout them yet, I just soak them for 30-60 minutes then drink/eat them.

Sprouting is easy and fun and really nutritious. Love your sprouts and they will love you back!

We mostly use them in green salads only because we are eating really simply. When we can afford more nuts and a dehydrator, I have plans for using them in way more things.

I love the taste of sprouts and avocados together!

delmar - can you explain your millet sprouts for pasta? How long do you sprout them?

I soak 4 TBSP of millet overnight in a quart jar. In the morning I drain, add 1 TBSP of flax and shake them up. I rinse twice a day for 3 or four days, till the jar is full.

wish we had a like button on here! That looks very good.

[delmar]

a button? Yes it is good stuff! I eat it every day for at least one meal. Cheapest food in the word that is not from foraged plants.

Thanks Delmar! Going to try it just as you say.

Need to line up some ideas for when the tomato harvest comes.

Lentil sprouts today. I actually let them green a bit and they are good. Sunflower greens yesterday. Various others in progress. I bought some sprouting bags. Hope they are good. Looking forward to the radish and broc sprouts.
