Microgreens have been used for a dozen or more years by chefs and culinary artists. Primarily seen as a “garnish” or bit of beauty or flavor pop on a plate, microgreens are emerging as a food and nutritious entity all their own. It’s exciting! More recipes and ideas are emerging frequently that you and I can enjoy making and serving to family and friends, right in our own kitchens. I recently tried this easy, yummilicous guacamole that was met with rave reviews by my kids and husband.
Grab a couple of avocados and get started!
