Supercharge Your Protein Intake with Homemade Microgreen Powder

Are you looking for a nutrient-dense, plant-based protein boost? Look no further than your own kitchen! At Grassroots Farms, we’re excited to share how you can transform microgreens into a powerful protein powder that’s perfect for smoothies, shakes, and more.

Why Microgreens?

Microgreens are not just tiny, adorable versions of your favorite vegetables. These little powerhouses pack a serious nutritional punch, often containing higher concentrations of vitamins and minerals than their fully-grown counterparts. Moreover, they’re an excellent source of plant-based protein, making them ideal for creating your own protein powder.

Top Protein-Rich Microgreens

When it comes to protein content, some microgreens stand out from the rest:

  1. Sunflower Shoots: Containing 25 mg of protein per serving, these microgreens are a protein powerhouse.
  2. Pea Shoots: While exact protein content varies, pea shoots are known for their high protein levels.
  3. Rambo Radish Microgreens: With 3.0g of protein per 100g, these pack a protein punch.
  4. Kale Microgreens: Offering 2.2g of protein per serving, kale microgreens are a nutrient-dense option.

Creating Your Microgreen Protein Powder

Ready to get started? Here’s a simple recipe to create your own microgreen protein powder:

  1. Harvest and thoroughly clean your chosen microgreens.
  2. Dehydrate them using a food dehydrator or by air-drying in a well-ventilated area.
  3. Once completely dry, grind the microgreens into a fine powder using a high-speed blender or food processor.
  4. Store your microgreen powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.

Boosting Your Powder’s Protein Content

To enhance the protein content of your powder, consider adding these ingredients:

  • Ground pumpkin seeds
  • Chia seeds
  • Ground flax seeds
  • Almond flour

Simply blend these additions with your microgreen powder for an extra protein boost.
