Why sprouts are good for you
HEALTH BENEFITS: Good source of vitamin C and fibre. COOKING TIPS: Cut cross on base of sprout and boil for minimum time.

From a budget point of view they offer good value on winter veg. You’ll get maybe 30 sprouts per stem (Should get more perhaps on this plant) but they are ready at different times, with the ones at the bottom being ready first. So you’ll need enough stems to feed your family.
As a side vegetable I generally put 5 sprouts per person (With another veg being served) so work out based on getting 2-5 sprouts a plant at a time how many plants you’ll need. YOu can never have too many sprout plants either!
They’ll freeze if you have a glut and your neighbours will no doubt be happy to have any you don’t eat yourself!
