Checking in and Egg rolls...

June 6, 2012

Hello Everyone, Wow its been hard to keep up with all the convos. but I realy

enjoy them. I just feel bad I cant chim in as often as I would like!

Anyway I had an idea hit me the other day and I was wondering if anyone else has

thought of this.

and I had to go to another town to see our Dr.'s and while we was there we

checked out some other health food stores to see what we could find sprout/seed

wise. Well afterwards I was hungry so we stoped at a restaurant that I had been

wanting to try(the only time we ever get to go out to eat) It was Japanese.

While eating an eggroll, it dawned on me that I could prolly get the same flavor

but be much more healthy if I grew the sprouts to make the egg roll instead of

shredding the full grown veggies. Most egg rolls are made from cabbage carrot

garlic onion and a few other spices + meat, So Im thinking make a healthier

version with sprouts and no meat. Has anyone else tried this before and what did

you think.

Melody, we have started eating sprout patties and have fallen in love with them.

At first the 1st batch right outta the pan we didnt care for to much, so we put

them in the frig. well the next day I got them out determined I was going to try

them one more time before writting them off. Well I let them crisp up and took a

bite, hubby did as well. Next thing we new they was all gone and we was wanting

more...lol So now that had become something that we make alot of the past week!

We now have sunnies, peas and corn sprouting along with our normal sprouts.

Found a great deal on some seeds in the other town and so we are having fun.

Still looking for some cabbage sprouts So I can try the the egg roll ordeal.

Our local walmart was having a clearance on a few of there organic veggie seeds

a couple weeks back, so we picked up a few packages. Got some onion, carrot and

celery to try, well although they didnt have much in them, wow does the onion

pack a punch! Tiny but full of onioney flavor and the carrot was mild, celery

was a strong taste of Celery as well So we will be looking to get some of these

as well. I agree the onion is expensive, but it doesnt take as much and your not

going to eat just a onion sprout salad so they will go much further so an

investment on them will last a while.

I read the deal about the buckwheat and got worried cause I am making that

granola that I posted about. But Im not too worried anymore cause most of what I

have read and done with them only lets them sprout a tiny tale if that, so there

not greened up. More like soaks then a sprout. But will keep an eye out. We live

at a High elevation of over 7thousand feet, so the while the temps only average

in the 90's and maybe a day or 2 in the hundreds per year, the intensity of the

sun is a different scenario. It is very intense and you can " BURN " within

minutes so I will keep an eye out, but not to stressed over it!

Love all the great info here! Thanks everyone!
