Kohlrabi Micro + Radish Microgreens
Spice up your life this week with kohlrabi and radish microgreens! This colorful blend has an earthy taste with hints of warmth and pepper. These superfoods help fortify your immune system, boost digestion, and are a great addition to any family meal. Mix them into taco filling, add to hearty sandwiches or wraps, make a veggie bowl, or top a salad with this tasteful blend of micros. Gently rinse and keep these in the fridge for a boost of hydration and crunch.
Broccoli Micro
A classic superfood at any size, broccoli microgreens are bright and earthy, with a distinct flavor that makes them usable in a number of seasonal recipes. And these vitamin-packed micros are up to 40 times more nutritious than the full-sized broccoli trees. Try them on avocado toast, in a panini, or serve with grilled meat. We love them atop pasta or stew!
Rosemary + Lemon Verbena
Enjoy a blend of rosemary and lemon verbena this week, grown locally at our Arlington, VA farm. A kitchen staple and internal cleanser rosemary helps with seasonal colds and is a natural antimicrobial. Velvety, aromatic lemon verbena elevates many foods and beverages. Sprinkle on meats fresh from the grill, fold into pastas, bake with potatoes, or add to baked chicken or salmon. The slight citrus flavor pairs well with tomato-based sauces, marinades, and pesto. Mix in with soft cheeses or dips for an earthy flavor on your charcuterie board.
Cauliflower
A seasonal delight, cauliflower is a fibrous, nutritious veggie with a huge dose of vitamin C. Grown in ears, cauliflower can be blended into sauces, roasted and curried, and can transform into rice or noodles. We love cauliflower mac and cheese, adding it to egg-based dishes, and roasting with olive oil and adding cheese and micros on top. If adding to salads, tacos, or sandwiches, cauliflower blends beautifully with avocado.
