I have been growing/eating sprouts for a while. I sprout "cat grass" which is actually wheat grass, for our 2 cats and they LOVE it. I sprout Mung Beans and Alfalfa for sandwiches and salads.
Save Money and Sprout Your Own!
Sprouts are nutrient dense and take up almost no space. If you
want fresh veggies without having to grow a garden, sprouts are the way
to go.
Do you know that a small bag of Mung Beans sprouts at my local grocery store costs about $8?
That's ridiculous!
Mung Beans
For $6.50 you can get 8 ounces of Mung Beans (seeds), which will make LOTS sprouts. When I sprout 1/3 cup of Mung Beans I usually get about 3 cups of sprouts after 5-6 days!!!
Most important, by growing your own you are in control of
your food. You can decide when to grow, how much to grow and grow
them organically.
Each cup, or 104 g serving, of sprouted raw mung beans provides approx 155 mg potassium.
Mung Bean Sprouts
Each
1-cup serving of raw mung bean sprouts provides 14 mg vitamin C, or
nearly one quarter of the daily value for vitamin C. Vitamin C is an
antioxidant vitamin that is essential for proper immune function and
wound healing. Another benefit of mung bean sprouts is their 60 mcg
folic acid, or 15 percent of the daily value for this B vitamin, which
is an especially important nutrient for women who may become pregnant,
because it reduces the risk for neural tube birth defects.
This one quart sprouting jar is everything you need to learn the basic aspects of sprouting. A perfect way to get started.
Grow your own sprouts for a delicious and nutritious meal or snack for just pennies!!!
