Chia Microgreens – Tiny Powerhouses of Nutrients and Flavor
Chia microgreens are the young, vibrant shoots of the chia plant, offering a fresh, mild flavor with a slight earthy undertone. These tiny greens are packed with an impressive range of nutrients, providing a powerful health boost in every bite. While chia seeds are well-known for their omega-3 content, chia microgreens offer a completely different nutritional profile—rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and chlorophyll, but without the high fat content of the seeds.
