    1. Preheat a large skillet on medium-low heat for 1- to 2-minutes. Add the coconut oil.
    2. Add the onions and garlic and season with the  salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes until the onions are translucent.

    Vary It! Try adding chopped celery and napa cabbage to the sprouts for a different flavor and texture.
