LIFE AT THE END OF A DIRT ROAD IN CENTRAL MINNESOTA

Dick was zapped by the cold bug, so I thought this would be a perfect day to ease him back to health with an alfalfa sprout concoction. I have set out to expand my use of sprouts, that are bursting forth in three jars on my kitchen counter, beyond a sandwich and salad topping. With this beverage, I have crossed the starting line. What a tasty way to enjoy nutrition at its peak!  

Pineapple alfalfa drink 

Pineapple Alfalfa Drink from The Complete Sprouting Cookbook

by Karen Cross Whyte Copyright 1973

2 cups pineapple juice, chilled

1 cup alfalfa sprouts

1 tbsp honey

1 frozen banana, sliced

Put all ingredients in blender and whirl for 10 seconds.

Makes 2 large or 4 small juice glass servings.

Note: I added a few additional sprouts on top for garnish, but the entire 1 cup in the recipe is blended in. This is not meant to have a smooth texture, so don't overblend.
