Basil (Genovese) Microgreens - OG

Basil (Genovese) Microgreens - OG

Fresh Basil Flavor • Aromatic & Tender • Grown to Order

Basil microgreens bring the familiar aroma of fresh basil in a delicate, tender green that is easy to add to everyday meals. Their fresh herbal flavor makes them especially well suited for Italian-inspired dishes, salads, sandwiches, bowls, pasta, and other plant-forward meals.

At Loving My Greens, our Basil Microgreens are grown to order and harvested fresh, giving you vibrant greens with the flavor, texture, and freshness you want from locally grown microgreens.

Flavor & Texture

Basil microgreens have a fragrant, herbaceous flavor reminiscent of mature basil, with tender stems and delicate leaves.

Their fresh flavor works particularly well with:

  • Pasta and pesto-inspired dishes
  • Tomato and avocado
  • Salads and grain bowls
  • Sandwiches and wraps
  • Plant-based pizzas
  • Soups
  • Tofu and vegetable dishes
  • Fresh Mediterranean-style meals

Because of their delicate texture and aroma, basil microgreens are especially enjoyable when added after cooking or just before serving.

Nutritional Highlights

Basil microgreens provide a fresh source of plant nutrients and naturally occurring phytonutrients as part of a varied, plant-rich diet.

Like other colorful herbs and greens, basil contains plant compounds with antioxidant activity. Nutrient and phytochemical levels can vary depending on the basil variety, growing conditions, harvest stage, and other factors.

How to Enjoy Basil Microgreens

One of the easiest ways to use basil microgreens is as a fresh finishing ingredient.

Try them:

  • Scattered over pasta
  • Added to avocado toast
  • Folded into salads
  • Topped onto homemade pizza
  • Added to wraps and sandwiches
  • Mixed into grain or Buddha bowls
  • Paired with tomatoes and balsamic
  • Used as a fresh garnish for soups
  • Blended into pesto or other herb sauces

Their distinctive basil flavor means even a small handful can add freshness and character to a meal.

Freshness & Storage

For the best quality, keep your Basil Microgreens refrigerated and return them to the refrigerator promptly after each use.

Because basil is naturally more delicate than many vegetable microgreens, handle the greens gently and keep excess moisture out of the container.

Use clean utensils or clean hands when removing your microgreens and enjoy them while they are fresh.

Grown Fresh for You

We don't grow large quantities of microgreens and leave them sitting around waiting to be sold.

Your Basil Microgreens are grown specifically for upcoming customer orders, then harvested fresh for delivery or shipping.

That means your first order requires time for the crop to grow before harvest.

Fresh. Grown to order. Harvested with purpose.

Local Delivery & Nationwide Shipping

Loving My Greens offers fresh microgreens through both local South Florida delivery and nationwide shipping.

Local deliveries are made during our scheduled delivery routes, while shipped orders leave the farm on designated shipping days so we can coordinate harvest and transit as closely as possible.
