Organic Seeds Sprouter Review

I'm already in the mood for spring. I love seeing the grass turn from brown to green, hearing the birds sing, sending the kids outside to play, and planting things we can eat.

Recently I got Organic Seeds Sprouter to Review. Cost: $15.90, and on sale for $12.90. I could choose between the following:

Beet seeds
Mustard seeds
Broccoli seeds

They are natural seed sprouts. I chose broccoli. It's not typical broccoli. It's sprouts. You can grow it, and have the sprouts on sandwiches, or salads. We have a lot of salads, so I imagine that's what we'll be having these sprouts on.

Packed Full

I like that the bag of seeds is packed full. I'll tell you why: The first and only time I tried getting them to grow I was not successful. I don't think there's anything wrong with the seeds. I just screwed it up.

I tried growing them 2 different ways:

1. I folded a paper towel, wet it, put it on an egg holder, put the seeds on it, and kept spraying the paper towel. I kept clear plastic over the set up. First the seeds grew. Then they started molding. I took the bag off, and the paper towel kept drying up. That was that.


2. I got a Chia Pet on clearance for super cheap. I soaked the seeds, and spread them on the Chia Pet. They grew a little bit, and that was it. I know that this planter isn't meant for these seeds, but I thought I'd give it a try. They are both sprouts.

Growing Them Different Now:

I'll admit that I don't have a green thumb. I'm trying. Dad does the garden work for the most part in the spring and summer.

I'm not giving up. The good thing is that there are plenty of seeds to try growing them again. I want my broccoli sprouts!

I don't think this is the products fault. It's mine. I just have trouble growing things. I get frustrated. It said they were easy to grow, but I failed. I'm thinking, If they are so easy to grow, how did I mess them up?

Nutrition:

Sprouts are an excellent source of highly absorbable Vitamins including A, B, C, E and K, Chlorophyll, high quality balanced proteins, fibers, Minerals such as Calcium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Magnesium, Iron, zinc as well as trace Minerals, Carotene, Amino Acids, Enzymes, Anti-oxidants and Bioflavonoids.

Flavor:

Adds a little cabbagey flavor to your dish, with the slightest bit of tang. The broccoli sprout is quite humble in its flavor, but "full of itself" when it comes to nutrition! 

Maybe I'll be able to taste them the 3rd time I try and grow them. 

Disclaimer: I'm writing this in connection to Tomoson. I got Organic Seeds Sprouter free for review. I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

 

The Kids Will Eat Sushi! Right?

I went to Costco, and saw a yummy looking tray of Sushi. I thought, sushi looks yummy and artsy! The kids are great eaters and will try it!

They are good little eaters. Mica's a little more open minded then Isaak. They both love salad, any fruit, most any veggie, most any meat and rice. Isaak doesn't like buns very much, but they will both chow down on waffles, pancakes or toast. It's when things are mixed up that they are sometimes unwilling to try something. I'm just glad I don't have kids that will only eat Mac and Cheese!

Here was their dinner last night:

Both kids gave thumbs up to the teriyaki chicken, pineapple, broccoli and sparkling juice. Mica started giving thumbs up when things are good. Isaak quickly followed.

Along with thumbs up is a thumbs down. Both boy's didn't want to try the sushi. For Mica it was because there was avocado in it. As if you can taste that! I convinced Mica to push the avocado out and eat the rest. He did. Isaak on the other hand wasn't going to budge at all! I told him all about the outside being rice, and he wouldn't open his mouth up to taste it at all.

Oh well! I tried. If they were like this on a regular basis with normal everyday foods; I would pushed them to eat. They are good little eaters, so I let it slide. What little kid eats sushi anyhow? They did eat more broccoli, which is a good thing!

*Do you like the sparkling juice glass? I thought it would be easier to hold and drink out of over a wine glass and still seem special! It's a Sunday ice cream dish.
