Did you think microgreens were just wanky little mini decorations chefs use to make their dishes look, well, cheffy? Think again! MICROGREENS pack a powerful nutritional punch, with up to 9 times more vitamins, minerals, antioxidants & polyphenols (plant compounds that help fight baddies) than fully mature vegetables. New Leaf is a small start up by a passionate guy named Adam, and they’re grown right here in the UAE! Being a local company, they are as fresh as can be, and this gives the added bonus of a 7-9 day fridge life. They are grown in 100% organic soil without pesticides, herbicides, chemical or synthetic fertilisers. They add a delicious flavour game too, with some being spicy, or mustardy, or garlicky oh my. Try some today whizzed in your smoothie, added to salads, sprinkled over eggs, avo smash or whatever you please!
