Difficulty: Easy
Time: 30-35 min

Microgreeens are the star of this show. We want to take minute to share with you the beauty of microgreens and what they are. Microgreens are tiny versions of their “large-plant” counterparts that seed into little sprouts and are grown and harvested in small batches. These microgreens pack a lot of punch and add a lot of flavor to any dish they are a part of! We get these beauties from a small farm in Princeton, MN called Iron Shoe farm!
