Lil' sprouts -- a healthy food endorsement

There is a grocery store in my region and in the Northeast -- Wegmans. I have such warm feelings for this store, and how could you not? Prepared foods far better than I could concoct, immaculately clean, amazing selection of international footds, helpful staff, no lines. All that, and this little item-- what they call "crunchy sprout mix." Adzuki, lentil, and mung sprouts that provide high protein, negligible calories, and visual interest. They come in little bags like these...

And they are pretty good with a little dressing, all by themselves...

Oh, and they're pretty filling, but not so much that you won't be tempted by the bread pudding for dessert. One day I'll write about the bread pudding my grandmother used to make -- a food group all its own...

  1. Oh I loved her bread pudding too! and the lemon sauce! I have tried to make it, but it must have been her special recipe. Nothing seems as good...those were the sweet old days, all the cookies we could eat and hugs too. ahh
