Just growing our great microgreens and shoots is a first step to unlocking all the nutrition and goodness found in these tiny powerhouses. Today a quick snapshot of how we used two of our trays in a delicious and highly potent mix of ingredients at dinner.

We took our mung and snow pea shoots and added them to a mix of tofu, onion, garlic in a stir fry (olive oil, lemon and soy sauce). The snow peas are tender while the mung is fibrous so we cooked the mung with the tofu and onion initially and added the snow peas just before serving. It was an incredible meal!

Researchers used subjects in heavily polluted areas of China to test their hypothesis and results were significant.
