We are obsessed with throwing veggies into everything we can these days. Why?
1. To get more nutrients into our meals
2. It lightens and brightens things up a bit
3. Because Farmers Markets, duh
We are sneaking Zucchini into everything, yes, even Burgers. They’re in season, high in antioxidants and super versatile. You don’t even know it’s there and it really lightens up the heaviness of a burger.
