Ready! Set! Sprout!

Save money.

Save time.

Eat fresh.

Sprout.

It is so easy you won't believe it.

Ready?

Take green lentils or sunflower seeds or mung beans or soy beans or adzuki beans or whatever (do an online search to find out what else you can sprout).

Put 'em in a jar covered with cheesecloth. Fill the jar with your sprouts-to-be only 1/3 of the way.

Soak overnight in twice the amount of water as sprout-to-be.

Drain.

Rinse.

Drain.

Repeat rinse and drain in 12 hours.

Repeat again in 12 hours.

Repeat again in 12 hours.

When tails form, taste.

Repeat as many times as you choose until you are ready to "harvest" your sprouts.

Result: fresh "veggies" year 'round.

Sprout volume will generally be 2-3 times the original volume.

A great return on investment.
