Sprout!


I've been remiss in my blogging duties - and my camera has run out of batteries. So no (of my own) pics here for awhile. But that does not mean I have not been cooking. On Saturday Micah and I made a somewhat bastardized version of the Green Curry Tofu from VwaV. I'll admit, I was way too lazy to make my own chili paste...so I bought some. It turned out ok - not great - but a good first attempt at a homemade curry. Does not taste like it came from a Thai restaurant, but then again it's probably much healthier.
On Sunday I made Lemon Poppyseed Shortbread from How it all Vegan. At least I think that's where it came from as I copied it down while I was at Borders looking at books. Soon I will have more vegan cookbooks, I promise.
Lastly, and the namesake of this blog, I began sprouting this weekend. I had always wanted to try it and when I saw a "kit" (really a mason jar with different screens) for only $4, I had to try it. I started my first batch of mung bean sprouts on Sunday and almost all the beans have pretty long sprouts by now. I'll most likely harvest them tomorrow - now if I could only think of what to do with them besides the standard sandwich idea. Hopefully I'll have pictures to show of my fledgling sprouts soon.
