Notes
Notes:
Variations;
Other vegetables you can use instead of Zucchini are Carrots, Cucumber, Sweet Potato, Daikon Radish, or Butternut Pumpkin (aka Butternut Squash).
Optional - you can warm through the zucchini by sauteing or steaming if you prefer it heated
Black Ground Pepper is also nice, although I like to stay away from adding salt or pepper automatically to my dishes thesedays, but for a variation, I might add them sometimes.
Optional - serve on a bed of rocket, spinach, or mixed salad
