Sunflowers – The beauty of sunflowers lies not only in their golden blossoms, but also in their leaves and stems. You may enjoy sunflower seeds, but did you know you can also eat sunflower microgreens? They are a delicious addition to any salad or sandwich. Their sweet and nutty flavour can be added to any dish for a boost of nutrients.

Read on to learn more about sunflower microgreens nutritional facts and how you can use them.

They are simply young plants harvested before they fully mature, harvested when only 2.5–7.6 centimetres tall. If you’re looking for a healthy alternative to spinach or lettuce on your salad then look no further than these. Just sprinkle some over your next meal for added flavour and texture!

Their nutritional value is one of the best parts about these tiny plants. Did you know that they contain high levels of vitamins K, A, C, B6 and folates? These nutrients help support our immune system as well as provide us with energy for our day-to-day activities. At this young stage of growth, they contain a concentrated amount of antioxidants, vitamins, and nutrients. Although they are tiny, they pack a huge nutritional punch! Depending on the variety, microgreens have higher levels of nutrients—around five times more on average—than the same leaves found on the mature plant.

What are sunflower microgreens?

Microgreens are tiny plants grown from the seeds of vegetables, herbs, and legumes. They are grown in soil (or a soilless growing medium) and harvested when only 2.5–7.6 centimetres tall.
