The inspiration for this recipe came to me one day when I was browsing the farmers market. I came across a stand selling a variety of microgreens, and I was immediately intrigued. I had never used microgreens before, but I knew that they were packed with nutrients. I bought a few different varieties, and I started experimenting with them in my cooking. I quickly discovered that microgreens add a delicious and nutritious boost to any dish. This soup is one of my favorite ways to use microgreens. It's simple to make, and it's packed with flavor. I love to serve it with a side of crusty bread or a grilled cheese sandwich.
