Repost from @nutritionstripped - Microgreens can be added to most of your meals for a little crunch and a boost of nutrition!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When compared to their mature counterparts, microgreens are more nutrient-dense. One study from the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry for example showed that red cabbage microgreens had 40 times more vitamin E and six times more vitamin C than mature red cabbage.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Microgreens have been shown to have more folate, vitamin C, vitamin A, B vitamins, and antioxidants lutein and beta-carotene (especially high in cilantro microgreens).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why does this happen? 🌱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Think about how much beautiful energy lives within the tiny sprout and microgreen of a plant as it’s gathering all the food and energy to become its fullest version of itself? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Well if you harvest the plant right after germination, all those nutrients the plant needs to grow and become the fullest version of itself are right there and concentrated. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fresh microgreens are best eaten raw to obtain the most nutrients and the flavor is best then. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They’re really delicious in salads, thrown into smoothies, and on sandwiches because they’re much lighter in texture and their flavors mesh really well.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can buy microgreens at the farmer’s market or many grocery stores, but if you’re interested in learning how to grow them at home, I have a full article on that on the blog for you! Simply search for “sprouting” and you’ll find it!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you currently use microgreens weekly? If not, do you want to give them a try now? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
