Mel,

Time to do the first cutting of your pea shoots.

ew

I finally got it right. Had so many trays of

sunnies and pea shoots!!!

Well, after much experimenting with various things to green up my sprouts, I

found I had so many trays that needed direct sunlight, as opposed to the

sproutgarden trays that need indirect sunlight, and because I know I'll be

sprouting up a sunflower and pea shoot storm from now on, I had to come up with

a place that would get all the sunshine and a place where I could fit ALL of my

trays.

And I got my kitchen back and I can now put my Vitamix back where it belonged.

Hello Banana Ice cream vitamix style.

The beauty of doing what I did is that I can have the microgreens covered and

in the dark while they get the roots dug in, and then I can just take off any

covering and have them SUN up!!!

I can fit ALL of my trays, even the super one with the humidity dome.

Here you go!! And I'm not changing it any more. This works for me. lol

Melody

Take a look. And this is it for me.

Yes, I did it today.; Alan had a doctor appointment and our doctor LOVES

sprouts. So today I brought a mixture of my brassicas and some sunnies and the

pea shoots. He had NEVER had sunnies and pea shoots and I showed his staff the

video of my sprouts and they all went ooooh and aaah. I'm getting the word out.

Let's hear it for Sunflower Oil.

I've never used that myself. I have used Safflower oil.

I don't think I've ever even seen sunflower oil anywhere.

But I do have extra virgin coconut oil in my house and I use extra virgin olive

oil for sauteeing, and other things.

And in my greens, with garlic, etc.

Oh My!!!

I think if I started to cook like this when I was 25, I would never have reached

300 lbs. All those twinkies and ding dongs and hostess ho ho's.

lol

I have seen sunflower oil in some other mixtures of oil, and coconut oil as

well, but don't recall if I've had any of them.  I am going to check out

coconut oil.   I have seen Safflower oil but haven't used any of it.  I did

find out tonight that EVO can take to about 200 degrees before it starts to

break down and start getting rancid.  Grape seed oil can go to 400 before it

starts to break down and begins to become rancid.  Peanut oil has a high smoke

level but then adds flavor to product and there are so many people allergic to

peanuts so not that great to use because of the allergies.
