I'm using the "el cheapo" growing in a glass jar method, but I can't remember whether to put the sprouts in the light on a window ledge, or whether I should I keep them to sprout in the dark, or less bright area of my kitchen.

Melody? Anyone?

Don't know if you ever found some of my bean sprouts video, but here's a link to one I made. Get a load of how they can look if you sprout them correctly.

I was asking my fellow sprouters if I can eat them (the leaves I mean), after I saute them? I found out that yes indeed, I can eat all of these. And what I do with them is amazing.

I grab a handful, throw them in a frying pan, add a splash of extra virgin olive oil and saute for 30 seconds. I then take my bowl and first I put in the rest of my sprouts, (broccoli, alfalfa, fenugreek (god, I love this one), and whatever one puts in a salad, etc. tomatoes, black olives, etc.)

then I throw in the sauteed bean sprouts. I don't have to add any oil, because the bean sprouts were sauteed in the olive oil. I just add some salt and pepper to taste, some garlic poweder, some turmeric (I put this in EVERYTHING), and some basil. I toss toss toss.

Believe me, THIS IS A SALAD THAT IS TO DIE FOR!!

lol

Melody

P.S. Let me know how you do with your bean sprouts.
