Spouting Sprouts

To reduce our visits to the grocery store we have been making an effort to eat out of our pantry.  A few days ago Ian pulled out a bag of (who knows how old) mung beans.  Who eats mung beans?  Why do we even have these?!


Ian started the spouting process by soaking the beans for 8 hours.  I then transferred the beans into four mason jars and covered them with cheesecloth.


Each day I add water, rinse, and drain. Let the spouting begin!

Day 1

Day 2

Day 3

Day 4

Day 5
What to do with sprouts you ask?  Our go to sprouts meal is wraps.  The boys love them and they are a great way to get veggies into them without complaints.

Creamy and crunchy: you cannot beat the avocado-spout combo.  

This wrap has both our sprouts and our farm fresh rooster!
Yum!
