Make your own Protein Bean Mix - How to Sprout Beans and make a Healthy Sprouted Bean Salad

I really enjoy Sprouting. One of my favorite Salads in Protein Sprouted Bean mix. 
This is a very healthy raw sprouted salad. 
I Sprout the beans for 3-4 days then make my salad.

What beans I used:
Adzuki Bean Sprouts
Urad Whole- Matpe Beans - Black Lentil Sprouts
Green Mung Bean Sprouts
Green Pea Sprouts
Garbanzo - Chickpea Sprouts
Brown - Green Lentil Sprouts
or any beans of your choice 

Mix equal amounts of  Dried Beans or any variation of your choice
Store in a Mason Jar.

How to Sprout Beans:
In a bowl add 1 cup Dry Beans
Check for any broken beans or stones.
Fill bowl with Cold Water and soak overnight
Drain and rinse
I used a Stainless Steel Sprouter you can use a Mason Jar
Rinse and Drains Beans twice a day. Keep covered.
I sprout the beans for 3-4 Days
Harvest to your desired length
Put Beans in a bowl of cold water remove as many Hulls as you can
Rinse and Drain
Put Sprouted Beans back into bowl with Hot Water covered
Soak for 3 minutes to help with Raw Taste (Optional, some people on a raw diet won't soak in hot water)
Drain and Rinse with Cold Water
Place on a towel to dry
Use Sprouted Beans as you wish.
