These microgreens offer a rich, savory flavor with none of the bitterness associated with mature kale. They’re perfect for adding to salads, sandwiches, wraps, or as a garnish for a wide variety of dishes.
Unlike the chewy, bitter leaves of mature kale, micro kale is tender and sweet, making it easy to incorporate into meals. Kale is known for its impressive nutritional benefits, and in its microgreen form, it’s packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, giving you all the goodness without the fuss!
