Not all microgreens taste the same. Some are peppery, some are sweet and crunchy, and some are mild enough to blend into a smoothie without changing the flavor. Here are the varieties we recommend for everyday meals.

For fresh, crunchy salads

Choose varieties that add bite, texture, and color.

  • Sunflower microgreens — nutty and crunchy
  • Pea shoots — sweet and tender
  • Radish microgreens — peppery and bright
  • Beetroot microgreens — earthy with deep red stems

For smoothies and juices

Pick mild greens that blend smoothly without overpowering fruit.

  • Alfalfa — mild and easy to blend
  • Broccoli microgreens — soft flavor, great with banana and apple
  • Wheatgrass — for a deep green wellness shot

For sandwiches, wraps, and toasts

Use greens that hold their shape and add a chef-style finish.

  • Basil microgreens — fresh, aromatic, perfect on bruschetta
  • Mustard microgreens — sharp and bold
  • Amaranthus — vivid color and gentle flavor

How to choose

Start with two to three varieties and rotate them through the week. Grevia salad kits and chef packs are designed exactly for this — a balanced mix you can use across multiple meals.
