Description
Our Broccoli Nutri Special will give you the nutritional boost for the week.
Some Quick Facts:
- Our microgreens are harvested on a regular weekly basis, to ensure that our customers receive the freshest produce and the highest quality. Fully compostable/biodegradable packaging is used to stay environmentally conscious. Our produce remains mold free for up to 14 days if Stored Correctly
- The weight information displayed on our packaging is the actual usable plant weight.
- If you prefer your microgreens in a live growing plant tray, please take the following into account, Caution! Some microgreen varieties tend to form mold in the root area, if not properly attended to. Make sure that your planting mat is well ventilated at all times. Please note that the weight of the products offered in live growing trays include the grow mats, water, roots and packaging. This is why the usable plant weight is generally 40-50% below the declaration. All live grow tray suppliers have the same complications when it comes to mold control. See what Wikipedia has to say!
The #Microgreen Team works on food safe premises and is fully government approved. We care about the environment, hence why we only use compostable/biodegradable packaging.
Our nutrient packed Broccoli looks like a deep green and miniature version of this popular vegetable with a mild and slightly bitter taste that’s very crunchy and dense. Use it in salads, soups, smoothies and sandwiches along with quiches, omelets or other breakfast food that incorporates eggs. There are a tons of ways to eat broccoli microgreens. Depending on your family and their pickiness level you could serve these hidden where the kids can’t see them or in something like a salad.
If you need to hide the powerhouse veggie, then I would consider a microgreens smoothie. Green smoothies can taste amazing and can be a great way to add a ton of veggies and fruit into your day without much effort. Your broccoli microgreens can also be added to sandwiches. Add them in addition to your normal favorites like lettuce and spinach. Or add them into your favorite egg scramble, quiche or omelette for a super tasty breakfast. There is no wrong way to eat microgreens. You can even just snack on a handful of them if you want to give that a try!

They are a nutritional powerhouse! Studies have shown that broccoli microgreens can have 5- to 40 times the amount of vitamins and minerals than their mature counterparts (source). How microgreens are grown can have an impact on the amount of vitamin c found in broccoli microgreens, but in general broccoli microgreens have very high amounts of vitamin C.
Broccoli microgreens have larger quantities of magnesium, manganese, copper, and zinc. These are very essential minerals that most people are deficient in. Broccoli microgreens aid in diseases prevention as they contain the highest amount of sulforaphane available compared to almost any other food available.
