Who here loves a courgette?
They are so versatile, you can eat them raw or cooked in a variety of ways. What do you do with yours? ๐๐ฑ
Courgettes or Zucchinis and their flowers are an amazing edible duo. Zucchini flowers carry a lot of the same health benefits as the squash itself!
Zucchinis are essentially baby marrows and technically is considered a fruit (seeds on the inside). As such, it is eaten immaturely or before it grows too big.
As a summer fruit it has a high water content to help hydrate and is rich in vitamin A which is supportive of eye health.
It is incredibly versatile and can be eaten raw (in salads) or cooked.
