Yesterday I made a post about Growing Your Own Sprouts I promised you all some of my favorite recipes, so here they are! These two are my favorites. They are originals, I made them through trial and error until I got them to just the way we like them. However they are not carved in stone, you can add ingredients you like, or remove ones that you don't. I don't have any tomatoes in either because I don't like them raw. If you do, then add them! I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as we have.
If you want to share them on your blog or FB page, please ask me first. :)
