     Broccoli is a hardy and substantial microgreen that has a fresh, mild cabbage flavor.  It is an excellent choice as a base for any microgreens salad.  Broccoli microgreens are considered one of the most nutritious of all microgreens.  In fact, broccoli microgreens provide more nutrients than younger broccoli sprouts and the bunches of broccoli you buy in the store.  They are also favored for their health benefits, having concentrated levels of vitamins A, B, C, and E, the minerals calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, and zinc.

     Further, broccoli microgreens can provide up to 100 times the level of sulforaphane compared with mature broccoli and other mature cruciferous vegetables, including kale and cabbage.  Sulforaphane is a phytochemical that may have powerful cancer-fighting and -preventative properties.  Research shows that three or four servings of broccoli microgreens may significantly reduce the risk of cancer.  In fact, broccoli microgreens have higher levels of sulforaphane than any other food.  As an additional benefit, per the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), broccoli microgreens are low in calories, providing about 31 calories per 100g of fresh weight.
