I’d like to share a personal story.
I’ve talked on Facebook about choosing one thing you can do right now.
I have been doing this one thing for years and have watched hundreds of kids connect with food through this project.
For me, it happened one day in college when I ate a sandwich with avocado, cheddar cheese, and alfalfa sprouts on whole wheat bread. I was in love with the crunch and fascinated with the idea of growing my own.
That’s how I found Steve Meyerowitz, better known as the Sproutman! I read his book and learned how to grow sprouts and have been hooked on sprouting ever since.
Fast forward five years ago, I had the opportunity to interview Steve’s sons, Ari and Noah Meyerowitz, and share with them what an impact their late father had on my nutritional journey. Air and Noah, now known as the Sprout Brothers, are carrying on their dad’s mission to provide the highest quality sprouting seeds for you to grow the finest sprouts!
One of the things I love about Sproutman sprouts is the variety of sprouts available. From alfalfa to clover to lentil sprouts, there is a sprout for everyone! I’ve been experimenting with different types of sprouts and incorporating them into my meals in different ways. For example, I love adding alfalfa sprouts to my salads for a crunchy texture and extra nutrients, and using lentil sprouts as a base for my veggie bowls.
Alfalfa sprouts are a powerhouse of protein, vitamins C, K, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and iron. Just 1 Tbsp. of alfalfa seeds produce 2-3 cups of fresh healthy sprouts. Alfalfa sprouts are also great for strengthening your immune system and supporting digestion and detoxification. I’ve noticed a big difference in my energy levels and overall well-being since I started eating sprouts regularly.
Another advantage of sprouts is how easy they are to grow at home. I love the fact that I can grow my own fresh sprouts in just a few days, right in my kitchen. The Sproutman kit makes it super simple, and I love being able to have a constant supply of fresh sprouts on hand. And, they make it easy by delivering sprout seeds right to your door monthly so you never have to make a trip to the store to get them.
In conclusion, I can’t say enough good things about Sproutman sprouts. They have truly been an important part of my health and wellness journey, and I’m so glad I discovered them. If you’re looking to add more nutrients and vitality to your diet, I highly recommend giving Sproutman sprouts a try!
