RAW ZUCCHINI PASTA
Today I made Raw Zucchini Pasta for the first time, I would call it a success as 4 out of 6 in our house ate it.
Zucchini has a lot of good things going for it.
It is high in magnesium, an essential mineral which protects your tissues from harmful free radicals, and It assists with wound healing. It is also a good source of vitamin C, dietary fibre and folate
