Microgreens aren’t just nutritious—they’re also incredibly versatile! Adding these tiny greens to your meals is a simple way to boost flavor, texture, and nutrients. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snacks, microgreens can elevate any dish.

Breakfast

Start your day with a nutrient-packed breakfast. Toss a handful of spicy salad mix microgreens into your scrambled eggs or use them to top your avocado toast for a peppery kick. For smoothie lovers, blend sunflower or kale microgreens into your favorite mix for an added nutrient boost.

Lunch

Microgreens are perfect for sandwiches, wraps, and salads. Swap out lettuce for a bed of pea or radish microgreens to add a refreshing crunch and zesty flavor. Sprinkle them over a warm bowl of soup as a garnish—they’ll wilt slightly and add a beautiful, fresh touch.

Dinner

Add a gourmet flair to your dinner with microgreens! Top your pizza, pasta, or stir-fry with cantaloupe or broccoli microgreens for a vibrant and nutritious garnish. They also work wonderfully mixed into mashed potatoes or grain bowls.

Snacks

Snack smarter by using microgreens as a topping for crackers with hummus or cheese. You can even blend them into a quick homemade dip with Greek yogurt or cream cheese.
