Pizza holds a special place as one of my ultimate favorites, and I couldn't possibly compile a list without it. I mean, who can resist the charm of pizza, right? The best part is, you have the creative freedom to tailor the amount of microgreens to your liking—whether you opt for a subtle garnish or make them a star ingredient.
The beauty of using microgreens in pizza lies in the experimentation. You can play around with when to introduce the microgreens into the mix. Sprinkle them on top after the pizza is out of the oven to maintain that delightful crunch, or toss them on during the cooking process to let them cook and wilt ever so slightly, infusing their unique flavor into every bite.
Beef Burger with microgreens, mint aioli, & feta

Don't let the word 'aioli' intimidate you—it's essentially a fancy term for mayonnaise!
If you're looking to break free from the usual burger routine, this is a fantastic option with a more delicate flavor profile. The beauty of this burger is the versatility—you can choose any microgreen variety that tickles your taste buds.
While the recipe doesn't narrow down the choice, I'd suggest opting for some kohlrabi or cabbage microgreens to infuse a subtle coleslaw-like flavor, adding that extra delightful twist to your burger.

Pesto, a jack-of-all-trades sauce! While it's perfect for pasta, its uses are truly boundless. Drizzle it over salads, spread it on sandwiches—it's a flavor enhancer in countless ways. In this recipe, we've combined the goodness of sunflower microgreens and the tenderness of sweet pea shoots to craft a delightful pesto variation.

Whether you're dipping tortilla chips, garnishing tacos, or layering it in quesadillas, this salsa is a flavor bomb that elevates any Mexican-inspired dish. Just a heads up—it tastes even better if you let it sit overnight, so plan ahead for that burst of flavor.

Continuing with the theme of Mexican salsas and dips, let's dive into this incredible sunflower microgreen guacamole. Its versatility shines—perfect as a dip for chips or topping for tacos, just like salsa verde.
But guacamole doesn't stop there; it's a superstar on sandwiches too, whether as a condiment or as the main flavor. This recipe brings in the heat with jalapeno and the right kick of flavor from onion. However, for an added zing, consider tossing in some radish microgreens—they take it up a notch, giving your guacamole that extra bite!
Pea shoot savory Pancakes

Some reserve pancakes for a once-a-year treat on Shrove Tuesday, but not me. I'd savor them every morning if I could! And here's a twist you might not expect: these pancakes aren't just adorned with pea shoot microgreens; they're an integral part of the batter.
Blended seamlessly with chives and other carefully chosen ingredients, these microgreens infuse a distinct, savory flavor into the pancakes—a delightful surprise for your taste buds. They're so delicious you'd want to enjoy them any time of the day!
coursey of Florida Microgreens
This lemony pasta promises a distinctive Mediterranean essence. The inclusion of arugula microgreens introduces a delightful peppery note that beautifully complements the zesty lemon and garlic flavors.
While spaghetti or zucchini noodles are the recommended base, this sauce is versatile and pairs wonderfully with various pasta types. If you find yourself stuck in a spaghetti bolognese routine, this offers a refreshing, light alternative for a pasta dish bursting with flavor.
Roasted acorn squash, microgreens and quinoa Salad
courtesy of Chef de Home
This recipe is a delight for vegans and those following a gluten-free diet. Bursting with both microgreens and regular-sized vegetables, particularly the surprisingly flavorful acorn squash, it's a wholesome feast for the taste buds.
Despite its health-conscious and vegetarian nature, this dish is incredibly hearty and satisfying. The tahini dressing, featuring half a jalapeno pepper, adds a subtle kick of heat that enhances the overall experience. For those who prefer a milder taste, feel free to omit the jalapeno and enjoy this flavorful meal!

This exceptionally fresh and healthy salad embodies what often comes to mind when we talk about microgreens. While I aimed to showcase the versatility of microgreens beyond salads, it's essential to celebrate the classic as well.
In this salad, microgreens take center stage, being the sole greens featured, distinguishing it from others typically inclusive of various lettuces and baby greens. Their vibrant flavor and nutritional benefits shine through, making this salad a true microgreen masterpiece.
Microgreens Sushi

When it comes to this recipe, the beauty lies in the freedom to include microgreens to your liking.
In many cases, showcased in this link, microgreens serve as a garnish, lending a delightful accent.
However, if you're crafting sushi rolls in your kitchen, consider embracing microgreens as more than just a garnish. They make a fantastic addition within your California rolls or even as the star ingredient in vegetarian sushi rolls! Their crispiness adds a delightful crunch to each bite.

Behold, a towering masterpiece that's much easier to make than it seems—no cooking required!
The secret lies in using a tall mold and firmly layering your ingredients within. Don't worry if you don't have a mold; a simple hack is to trim the top and bottom of an aluminum beverage can to craft one.
For a vegan twist, skip the final layer of crab meat. While this dish highlights one layer of microgreens, don't hesitate to add more if you're craving that extra burst of freshness!
Sumac And Thyme Salmon Burger

Craving a change from the usual beef burgers? How about giving a salmon burger a whirl?
Whether it's sockeye, Atlantic, or pink salmon, all varieties work wonders in this recipe. And let's talk about sumac—a spice that brings a zingy, lemony flavor to the dish. If it's not in your spice cabinet, a bit of lemon juice can do the trick or simply omit it.
While this recipe features two types of microgreens, the possibilities are endless. Consider substituting arugula microgreens for the lettuce and opting for microgreen alternatives of cilantro, onion and thyme instead of fully-grown versions. Get creative and tailor it to your taste!

If you thought pea shoot pancakes were daring, brace yourself for this delightful surprise!
I'm on a mission to showcase the incredible versatility of microgreens as an ingredient. Their role in this strawberry chocolate tart, a dessert no less, is a testament to their adaptability in almost any recipe.
While this recipe features regular basil microgreens, the microgreen world offers a myriad of options. Consider experimenting with cinnamon basil or lemon basil microgreens for a twist, or add a hint of spice with some Thai basil! The microgreen realm is your oyster for culinary creativity.

I hope this recipe shows that microgreens aren't reserved for chefs and fancy dishes. They can elevate even a humble grilled cheese sandwich at home.
