This is the Bald Chef’s recipe for an extra healthy salad made with micro greens. Micro greens are 2 week old sprouts of Sunflower and Purple Radish Greens. The Micro Greens were found to have 4 to 40 times the nutritional value of the mature plant. The nutritional value comes from the Vitamin C, E, K, beta-carotene , phytonutrients, and antioxidants. The study was done by the University of Maryland and the USDA in 2012 . The salad recipe produce by these natural organic supper foods was dressed with Extra Virgin Olive oil , Salt, and Black Pepper. The finished product on the salad was outstanding. Recognizing the incredible powerhouse of nutrition that this super food has its almost hard to believe that it taste as good as it does.
