Growing up what did most of our mothers do to get us to eat our vegetables? Bribe us. They would promise we would get dessert if we just eat all of the vegetables on our plate. But in America, for a few decades now, there has been something like a “movement” to get the public to eat less meat and more veggies. Other Virilyans have inspired me, so I have started this series with a twofold purpose.
Purpose 1: Encouraging people (including me) to develop healthier eating habits; mainly to eat more veggies.
Purpose 2: Sharing links to posts by my fellow Virilyans that include veggie recipes or health information or both.
I picked one of my favorite veggies as the first post in this series. Zucchini!
The cool thing about zucchini is that you can use it in a dessert, like a cupcake! And you can eat for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Yes

I like them being pickled. In Tajikistan, they love them as their side dish.
I have never tried them pickled but I loved pickled veggies so I’m sure I will like them.
Thank you for all the delicious looking recipes. I will be back to try a couple out when I get some fresh zucchini!
My son has a friend who has a vegetable garden and he grows huge zucchinis.
That is wonderful and even more so that they share the produce with friends!
I grew zucchini with great difficulty in our kind of weather and the rodents ate them up. Now I just buy them from the market.
For some reason, the zucchini they sell at the local grocery store is ridiculously cheap! I love it!
I love zucchini. I grill them. I do spaghetti. I also prepare lasagna.
There are so many different ways to prepare this veggie. My late mother very seldom cooked zucchini. She liked the yellow squash.
