Did you know?
Zucchinis: The star of this recipe, zucchinis contain potassium, folate, Vitamin A and C. During zucchini season buy locally and you will be surprised to find zucchinis that are nearly 3 times the size of what you’ll find in the grocery store.
Tomatoes: High in lycopene, a phytochemical that enhances the body’s defences against diseases like cancer, heart disease and macular degenerative disease. Studies have shown that those that have more lycopene in their diets have lower rates of cancer. Good enough reason to me!
Dulse: A sea vegetable that can usually be found in flakes. It can be sprinkled on top of everything from veggies to salads, rice dishes and casseroles. Dulse, like other sea veggies is high in iodine, which is essential for thyroid health.
