Which is good news for us microgreen lovers, or those looking to make their salads even healthier!
How do I use microgreens?
How do I use microgreens?
In any place you would normally use lettuce or other green salad!
They work great as a salad base all on their own, no need to add lettuce if you don't want to.
They can be combined with lettuce and other salad items to make a varied salad mix.
Or they can be used as a garnish anywhere you like.
Add them to your sandwiches, sprinkle on pasta and mix them into buddha bowls!
Or eat them all on their own like a wee rabbit!
What do microgreens taste like and will I like them?
What do microgreens taste like and will I like them?
I'm pretty biased but I think microgreens are super tasty.
They're like a cross between your favourite salad leaf and the plant they come from.
So pea shoots, for example, are like a mild leaf version of a pea.
While sunflower microgreens have a more nutty flavour!
Generally I find that people who like a salad LOVE microgreens!
