Microgreens are baby greens harvested before growing their true leaves. They are young seedlings of edible vegetables and herbs harvested less than 14 days after germination. They are considered a superfood packed with antioxidants and other healthy nutrients.
Microgreens boast up to 40 times more nutritional value per gram than mature plants, and they are packed with earthy flavor and texture!
Microgreens can be consumed with almost any dish, add them to your favorite salad greens, top them on your morning eggs or avocado toast. For lunch or dinner, garnish your soup or pasta with microgreens, or toss in your sandwich.
