Pecan Sprout Loaf

This is a good recipe to serve on a bed of lettuce with crudités.

INGREDIENTS | SERVES 4

  • ½ cup cabbage sprouts, mung sprouts, or other sprouts
  • ½ cup alfalfa sprouts
  • 1 cup pecans
  • 1 tablespoon tamari
  • ¼ cup of red or white onions, chopped
  • ¼ cup sweet bell pepper, chopped
  • ¼ cup celery hearts, chopped
  • Water for blending
  1. To use cabbage sprouts in this recipe, soak the cabbage seeds for 8 to 12 hours and sprout them for 3 days. Prepare the alfalfa sprouts in the same way.

  2. Soak the pecans for 2 to 4 hours. Drain and rinse.

  3. Grind the pecans and sprouts together in a food processor with the tamari.

  4. Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery to the food processor. Briefly process with enough water to help the ingredients stick together in a loaf.
