$2.55
Summer squash, including varieties like zucchini and yellow squash, is a tender, mild-flavoured vegetable that thrives in warm weather. Known for its soft, edible skin and delicate flesh, summer squash has been cultivated for thousands of years, with origins in the Americas. Its mild taste makes it a versatile ingredient in both cooked and raw dishes.
Summer squash is an excellent source of vitamin C, which helps to protect the skin and boost the immune system. It also contains vitamin A, beneficial for eye health, and a good amount of potassium, which supports healthy heart function. The high water content of summer squash aids in hydration, while its fibre supports digestion.
Barry’s tips: Slice summer squash thinly and toss it into salads for a crisp, refreshing addition, or grill it with olive oil, salt, and pepper for a simple side. You can also spiralise it as a low-carb alternative to pasta or sauté it with garlic and herbs for a quick, flavourful dish.
