1. Sprout 1 cup of dried lentils in a sprouting jar or in a bowl.

2. Put lentils in your container and fill with water so the lentils are covered by a couple inches of water - let soak overnight.

3. In the morning drain the lentils and leave them in your container on the kitchen counter. In the evening, rinse the lentils again in the same way.
