I love being self-employed but one of the major drawbacks is when I get sick, I go into a slight panic mode. I’ve mentioned I’m the type of girl that wings it most days (which also means, I don’t schedule out blog post very far in advance.) 90% of the time, this isn’t a problem until I get sick and can’t even think about stepping foot in the kitchen (which happened last week and why it’s been so quiet on the blog/social media).

This little bowl is another thrown together recipe (I think where I’m headed for every meal.) I’ve been working a lot with sprouted grains and beans, finding which flavors I like the best and sprouted rye berries has quickly become a favorite. Rye has a unique flavor and once sprouted, the flavor is a bit muted, but still very unique. I ate this salad for lunch for a few days in a row and the flavor was better each day. Of course, if rye berries aren’t your thing, any type of sprouted grain would work (or cooked grain for that matter.) I think next time I’ll plan ahead and sprout the chickpeas as well!

    Do you have a preferred method for sprouting your grains? I know I should be eating more but every time I try to sprout grains I end up with a slimy mess.

    Another amazing recipe! This will be on my plate tonight. Is rye gluten free though?

    Thank you! I will be trying this tonight. I have a mini goal of trying a new ingredient every couple week, learning a few different ways to use it. I was inspired to do this by your site which makes it so easy! I was at my local health food shop and they had grain bag in a row and I closed my eyes and pick one. Definitely trying this Rye Berry recipe first.

    I made this for lunch today and it was fantastic. I used lime instead of lemon, and added some red capsicum and cucumber (because that’s what I had), and I will definitely be having it for lunch again tomorrow.
