Sprouting Nuts

My masseuse, K, often talks with me about healthy eating ideas; and believe me, she is a wealth of knowledge. Via her husband's research, she cured herself of debilitating arthritus by changing her eating habits.

During the hot rocks massage, she gave me a great idea. I love salads with no dressing that are sprinkled with dried cranberries and raisins, and sometimes cheese or lean meat. She also suggested that I added sprouted nuts! How you make these is simply by placing walnuts or pecans in water for between 30 minutes to six hours. The nuts begin to sprout and apparently the nutritional value triples. Sounds yummy. I will have to try it soon.
