Zucchini is a type of summer squash that is harvested before it’s fully mature, which is why it’s considered a young fruit. It’s usually a dark emerald green on the outside, but some varieties are a sunny yellow. The inside is usually a pale white with a greenish tinge. The skin, seeds and flesh are all edible and packed with nutrients.
IQF Zucchini has a mild taste that verges on sweet, but mostly takes on the flavor of whatever it’s cooked with. This is why it’s such a great candidate as a low-carb pasta substitute in the form of zoodles—it takes on the flavor of whatever sauce it’s cooked with! Zucchini desserts have also become popular of late—it adds nutrients and bulk to ordinary, sugar-filled recipes, along with making them moist and delicious.
Enjoy the fresh flavor of our Great Value Frozen Zucchini Blend. This delicious blend includes a healthy mix of pre-sliced yellow and green zucchini. Zucchini is an excellent side dish that, in this convenient frozen, steamable form, is also quick and easy to prepare! Simply heat and serve as is or season with your favorite spices, combine with tomatoes and parmesan cheese for an easy bake recipe, or pair with corn, orange bell pepper, and noodles to create a classic stir-fry meal.
Zucchini is a low-calorie, high-fiber food with zero fat, making it a fairly healthy choice. Zucchini is rich in several vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial plant compounds. It also contains small amounts of iron, calcium, zinc, and several other B vitamins. In particular, its ample vitamin A content may support your vision and immune system. Raw zucchini offers a similar nutrition profile as cooked zucchini, but with less vitamin A and more vitamin C, a nutrient which tends to be reduced by cooking.
