What are Microgreens?
Microgreens are the very young seedlings of various vegetables and herbs, packed with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Aside from their nutritional value, they are also incredibly flavorful.
Why should you eat Microgreens?
Microgreens are concentrated with nutrition, making them 4 to 40 times more nutritious than their adult counterparts. A little on your plate will give you a good dose of nutrition.
Some health benefits include:
-High in antioxidants
-High in micronutrients (vitamins and minerals)
-Promotes good gut health
-Helps strengthen the immune system
How to eat Microgreens
Microgreens can be added to just about anything—simply take your favorite micros and throw them on your sandwich, scrambled eggs, pasta, rice, burgers etc. From sweet and crunchy to tender and spicy, they will add a boost of flavor and texture to your dishes. We love using broccoli and radish micros as a base, and adding cheesy scrambled eggs on top!
Micros For Kids!
Microgreens are a fantastic addition to your kids' meals, adding a good dose of essential vitamins and minerals those growing bodies need. Pea shoots, in particular are a kid favorite, making mealtime fun and nutritious!
TIP- For picky eaters (like my anti-vegetable 1.5 year old), try chopping up mild flavored greens like broccoli or kohlrabi, and mixing them into their meal. "Green sprinkles" mix well into rice, pasta and casseroles.
