Find out why everyone is raving about this easy yet oh-so-good side-dish. Instead of potatoes, we use raw zucchini, which gives it the right consistency minus all the carbs. It pairs beautifully with any protein of choice—everything from good quality chorizo or roast beef to grilled chicken or fish.

I am slightly confused how to compare the nutrition you list with the frequent adaptions I need to make and also what seems very variable nutrition values for many ingredients
do you have a list of the nutrition per ingredient that your recipes are calculated using? So I can compare and adapt more easily and so what I'm using is similar before relying on the overall nutrition guide. I do realise it will never be a complete match but would help to ensure we are getting a similar item or substitute if needs be.
Cucumber will make a different dish because it's a bit crunchier than raw courgette, but I bet it will still be fantastic!
