Our garbanzos are aliiiiiiiive! 😱Because we sprouted them!

DURING THE SPROUTING PROCESS

🌱 Enzyme inhibitors are removed, making digestion more effortless.
🌱 Nutrient content increases and becomes more bioavailable, allowing the body to better absorb and utilize proteins, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

🌱Helps reduce allergens found in grains
🌱Assists weight loss
🌱Promotes heart colon health

 

HOW TO SPROUT

1. Rinse ½-¾ cup garbanzo beans and be sure to remove any stones or debris. Place beans in a quart-size mason jar.
2. Add 2-3 cups water, filling the jar ¾ full, cover with a mesh lid. Soak garbanzo beans at least 8 hours or overnight.
3. Drain and rinse beans thoroughly. Invert the jar over a bowl at an angle so the beans will drain, but air can still circulate.
3. Repeat rinsing and draining 2-3x per day until sprouted (about 3-4 days)
4. Taste sprouts daily and continue rinsing and draining when sprouts have reached desired length and flavor.
5. Drain beans for several hours before cooking or transferring to a covered container. Store sprouts in the refrigerator up to 1 week.
