This wonderfully versatile and healthy vegetable contains only 25 calories per small zucchini, is low in sodium, cholesterol free, and is an excellent source of vitamin C and manganese. Leave the thin skin on for all preparations; it’s a good source of dietary fiber. Store unwashed zucchini in a plastic bag, in the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator, for no more than three days, for optimal freshness.
