Fresh Garden Food/Sprouting/Using long term food storage as fresh garden food
Long term food storage can be sprouted and soaked. These are seeds. They transform to a complete protein.
Maria's recommendation for sprouting mix recipes: https://healthypreparedness.blogspot....
"Alfalfa sprouts, quinoa sprouts, soybean sprouts and wheat sprouts are all excellent sources of protein. Here are a few examples: Raw pea sprouts — 149 calories, 10.6 grams of protein, 0.8 grams of fat and 32.5 grams of carbs per serving (1 cup)"

"Reducing levels of tannins and polyphenols through soaking enhances the body's ability to absorb minerals such as iron, zinc and calcium, as well as proteins in foods including chickpeas, mung beans, lentils and peas."

"Warning: Botulism poisoning may result if moist products are stored in packaging that reduces oxygen. When stored in airtight containers with oxygen absorbers, products must be dry (about 10% or less moisture content). Storage life can be significantly impacted by the following conditions:
Temperature: Store products at a temperature of 75°F/24°C or lower whenever possible. If storage temperatures are higher, rotate products as needed to maintain quality.
Moisture: Keep storage areas dry. It is best to keep containers off of the floor to allow for air circulation." https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/t...
