How to save a FORTUNE with Zucchini
Want to save a FORTUNE on your grocery bill EVERY year, and get healthier? PLANT SOME ZUCCHINI! My freezer is full year round! Chopped Zucchini, Shredded Zucchini, Zucchini Boats! Did I mention I have a separate chest freezer JUST FOR Zucchini? It is SUPER easy to grow, does not need a lot of watering, and let me emphasize again HOW MUCH IT WILL SAVE YOU ON YOUR GROCERY BILL!
First, let me explain the benefits of this amazing vegetable! The dietary fiber in zucchini helps lower cholesterol, it helps prevent cancer, it is GREAT for prostate health, it is an anti-Inflammatory, it helps prevent heart attack and stroke, it helps lower blood pressure, and it is high in manganese. (Get more details here)
Now let me explain how it is going to help you save on your grocery bill! I add zucchini to pretty much ALL my dishes! I replace half of the ground beef in a recipe with zucchini, I add it to my soups, I even add shredded zucchini to my mashed potatoes & brownies. The great thing about Zucchini is it takes the taste of what you are baking or cooking! You are going to use less meat in your hamburgers, meatloaf, chicken tacos, whatever you are cooking…THROW IT IN! You can make YUMMY bread with shredded zucchini and even make Zucchini Crisp. (Tastes just like apple crisp)
So get out there, buy a packet of Zucchini seeds for $.99 and get your plants growing! That one time $.99 purchase years ago, has saved me thousands over the last few years! (When I clean my zucchini’s I dry some of the seeds and use them the following year)

Really? Replace it with meat? Def going to have to try this, I am a vegetarian so the taste difference wouldn’t affect me any. Ive never cooked zucchini before (something I have been a bit afraid of) but anything to cut out some of the unhealthy red meat my family eats!
