Begining ???'s (sprouts for salad)

[Guest guest]

Hello Folks!

I joined some time last year when I was in hippie/idealistic frame of

mind and I got all excited about sprouting and working sprouts into our

diet. I wasn't able to invest much in start-up or order online, so the

idea was shuffled off to the back burner. Well, I finally have some

funds available and I'm excited about placing an order soon!

So now I have to decide what to order and how much, etc. We were trying

to work a big salad into our evening meals, but it quickly got too pricy

and we had to scale back or quit entirely, depending on the budget. For

those of you who eat sprout salads, do you still combine with lettuces

or is it all sprouts? What sprouts or mix do you think works best as a

salad base similar to lettuce/spinach based mild salads?

Also, is there a good formula for deciding how much will last how long?

Seems like if you use the yield ratio, you could get an idea if you knew

how much you would consume per day. But I really don't have a clue how

much we'd be likely to eat daily...

Thanks in advance!
