Sproutin' Sprouts
8:32 PM
Alfalfa sprouts are the best. You can put them on your salad and in your sandwich, it's a perfect green to keep around the house and it is super versatile. Also, it is VERY easy to grow! All you need to do is buy some alfalfa seed (this is a good brand here). Then you place 2 Tablespoons of the seeds in the bottom of a mason jar and cover them in a few inches of luke-warm water. Then, cover the lid of the jar with some cheese cloth and use a rubber band to secure it to the top with a rubber band. Leave it over night and then pour off the water in the morning. Rinse the seeds. Then use a butter knife to spread the seeds along the side of the mason jar and place the jar on its side. Put the jar in a sunny window and within 3 days you should have some delicious sprouts. After the sprouts have reached the desired size, cover the mason jar with a lid and place it in the fridge. The sprouts should last for about 3 days and are SUPER great on just about any sandwhich you can imagine ;)
