Everyone knows that you should eat your fruits and veggies, but how often do you really eat em. I know I eat a lot... but the dear fiance does not so much (at least not yet!)
I always love going to the farmers market and my vegetable garden to pick out the best seasonal veggies that are beyond flavorful. Fortunately the summer is PACKED with seasonal fruits and vegetables including cherries, zucchini, melons, plums, cucumbers, garlic and so much more.
Not only do seasonal vegetables have a better flavor, they are also more nutrient dense, so they are providing even more benefits to your health by eating them.
This seasonal fruits and vegetables are great, however you can pair up with some great ingredients to make amazing meals.
One of my FAVORITE seasonal vegetable would be the ZUCCHINI
yum. fried, in bread, you name it I will usually eat it :) and to top it off today is national Zucchini day!
