These aromatic greens, also known as micro herbs or vegetable confetti, are rich in flavor and add a welcomed splash of color to a variety of dishes (think salad, steak, pasta, chicken, cheeses, tacos, omelets and more) . Despite their small size, they pack a nutritional punch, containing  higher vitamin, mineral + antioxidant levels than the same quantity of mature greens.
