Wild Roquette (available in 100g flow wrap and 120g clam shell packs)

Roquette is rich in vitamin C and potassium, has a rich, peppery taste, and is exceptionally strongly flavoured for a leafy green.

It is generally used in salads but also cooked as a vegetable with pastas or meats and in coastal Slovenia (especially Koper), it is added to the cheese burek. In Italy, it is often used in pizzas, added just before the baking period ends or immediately afterwards, so that it can wilt in the heat. It is sometimes used as an ingredient in pesto, either in addition to basil or as a (non-traditional) substitute.

Spinach Leaves (available in 100g flow wrap and 120g clam shell packs)

Spinach has a large nutritional value, especially when fresh, steamed, or quickly boiled.

Spinach is an excellent source of vitamins A, C, E, K and B2. It also provides manganese, folate, , iron, , vitamin B2, calcium, potassium, and vitamin B6. It is a very good source of dietary fiber, copper, protein, phosphorous, zinc and. In addition, it is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, niacin and selenium.

It is a source of folic acid (Vitamin B9), and this vitamin was first purified from spinach. To benefit from the folate in spinach, it is better to steam it than to boil it.  When cooked, the volume of spinach is decreased by three quarters.

Raddicio (available in 100g flow wrap and 120g clam shell packs)

It is actually Italian Chicory.  Some (the popular) varieties includes radicchio di Verona which looks like a small head of red lettuce and radicchio di Treviso that looks a bit like a red version of Belgium Endive.  This vegetable is very popular in Italy and has gained in popularity in the United States in the last few years. It is eaten raw with just a bit of olive oil and salt, as well as mixed into a variety of salads.  You may also see it on menus grilled or roasted or combined into other dishes such as risotto.
