Microgreens are super-charged plants that are more nutrient dense than their mature counterparts (i.e., more nutrients in a much smaller serving size).
¼ tsp of dried microgreens is equivalent to an entire handful of leafy green vegetables.On average, microgreens are higher in vitamins (like Vitamins E, K, and C), antioxidants (like carotenoids, phylloquinone and tocopherols) and minerals than their mature counterparts.
Why dried greens? We love fresh microgreens, but they spoil easily and must be eaten right away.
