I'm not sure I could ever get used to sprouts. I am not a bean eater either.

I never ate a bean in my life. I was afraid they were too gassy. But I had read that they were a complex carb and a low glycemic, so... when I learned that they could be sprouted and that it makes them less gassy and you don't get bloated, well I figured, hey I need the protein.
So far so good. Today I made a sprout soup. I shredded some carrots in some Swanson reduced sodium broth. I added some chopped onion, and my sprouted lentils and beans. cooked the whole thing up.
When Alan came home from his doctor appointment, I asked him "would you like a nice bowl of hot soup?" He said "sounds like a plan". I had made some Dreamfield's low carb pasta, only I didn't cook it like spaghetti. I took the bunch of pasta and made little pieces of it and threw it in the pot of boiling water.
It really made the soup nice and thick and very substantial.
Alan was in heaven. I'm just happy I can eat this stuff. It's wonderful to eat things that not only taste nice but that I grew much of it in my kitchen.
What a hoot!!
