Prep Tip
Rinse sprouts thoroughly before eating and keep them well refrigerated — like all sprouts, they carry a higher food-safety risk than cooked legumes if not handled carefully.
Absorption Boost
Citrus dressing — complements the sprouts' own vitamin C and brightens flavor
Avocado or olive oil — adds healthy fat for a more balanced meal
Use Caution If
You have a compromised immune system or are pregnant — raw sprouts carry a higher risk of foodborne illness than cooked legumes
You have IBS — like other legumes, can cause bloating in sensitive people
Storage
Refrigerate in a breathable container and use within 3–4 days; rinse daily if sprouting them yourself.
