Zucchini contains a relatively small amount of vegetable fiber and a significant amount of water. Due to this, these melons and gourds do not irritate the stomach and intestines, they have the ability to remove excess fluid from the body. In cooking, zucchini is usually stewed, fried, stuffed with meat or vegetables. Try making them sweet pepper and cheese rolls.
