GUELPH, Ont. — With delicious bursts of flavour, new mixes of microgreens and baby greens from GoodLeaf Farms are truly as the package says – dressing optional.
Building on its original spring mix that is a hit with consumers, GoodLeaf has introduced two additional new blends of its greens that deliver big taste with a punch of nutritional goodness, elevating any salad or main dish to which they are added.
“You do not have to smother your salad greens in dressing to find flavour,” says Cheryl Verbiski, Vice President, Commercial at GoodLeaf Farms. “Microgreens and baby greens have all of the flavour of their adult plant counterparts. Finding the right blend produces a mouth-watering food experience — without compromising on the health benefits that come with a product that could pack as much as 40 times the nutritional value as a mature plant.”
GoodLeaf’s Dressing Optional™ line includes three products.
- Spring Mix — The original, and a best seller! A sophisticated, fresh take on a typical spring salad. It is a harmonious blend of young, tender lettuces with flavour-packed Kick’n Micro mustard Hero Greens™. An easy way to create an elevated salad or add a fresh twist to sandwiches. This is an excellent source of Vitamin A and Vitamin K, and is a source of Vitamin C.
- Sweet & Spicy Mix — Sweet and tender fresh pea shoots on a bed of crisp lettuce and finished with a hint of zesty radish. This blend is an excellent source of Vitamin K and a good source of Vitamin A.
- Four Seasons Mix — Bright crisp lettuce, with the mild, earthy flavour of broccoli and a touch of heat from mustard microgreens. This medley is an excellent source of Vitamin K and a good source of Vitamin A.
Like all leafy greens from GoodLeaf Farms, the produce in the new mixes is grown in ideal conditions in an indoor farm, without the use of pesticides, herbicides or fungicides. A Canadian company with indoor vertical farms across the country, GoodLeaf’s operations provide a local source of a food product that is typically imported, while using less water and land than the farms in the Southern United States where most leafy greens sold in Canada originate.
