My daughter got me started a few years ago. She got me a sprouting jar kit, with several sieved lids, different sized holes. She gets me bags of mixed sprout seeds. Right now, I'm using organic Sprout House Veggie Queen, which has French and Green Lentil seeds, red clover, Daikon radish and fenugreek. I have some High Mowing packs. One is all broccoli and another is mixed sandwich booster. They take about 4 days to sprout and last several days in the fridge. I like to make a basic salad with the sprouts and whatever fresh veggies I have, or wraps.

If you start, hope you enjoy the experience
