Author Notes

Sprouting makes the grain more nutritional because you are eating a complete plant not just the seeds. The whole possess take about 24 hours and it very simple, there are so many things that can be sprouted(i have heard that not Soy beans or Kidney beans) if you
are having trouble with mold they say to use grapefruit oil or food grade hydrogen peroxide, i have never had to use any of that, google sprouting quinoa —Lori Podray
