I wouldn’t necessarily compare the nutritional value of sprouts and microgreens. One reason being that they both equally have interesting nutritional profile (rich in different antioxydants, vitamins, and sprouts from legumes especially are a good source of protein). In fact, germinated seeds contain a higher concentration of certain phytochemicals than mature plants. However, this is also the case for microgreens! Moreover, the nutrient profile is different from one seed variety to another.

Appart from the process to grow them, I would rather consider the difference between sprouts and microgreens in regards to their texture, taste and shape. In the end, healthy eating is a lot about eating a variety of foods, and microgreens can add a fun twist to our daily meals!

Hope this was useful!

Is there a preference to grow micro-greens instead?
