The 13 Healthiest Leafy Green Vegetables

2. Microgreens

Microgreens are immature greens produced from the seeds of vegetables and herbs. They typically measure 1–3 inches (2.5–7.5 cm).

Since the 1980s, they have often been used as a garnish or decoration, but they have many more uses.

Despite their small size, they’re full of color, flavor and nutrients. In fact, one study found that microgreens contain up to 40 times more nutrients compared to their mature counterparts. Some of these nutrients include vitamins C, E and K (5Trusted Source).

Microgreens can be grown in the comfort of your own home all year round, making them easily available.
