Spring is a wonderful time of the year when fresh produce is abundant. If you are looking for some nutritious options to add to your meals, here are three spring produce options you should consider (which are also ZeroPoint foods):

  • Cauliflower is a cruciferous vegetable that is low in calories and high in fibre, making it an excellent choice for those looking to maintain a healthy weight. It is also rich in vitamins C, K, and B6, as well as folate and potassium.
  • Leeks are a member of the onion family and have a mild, sweet flavour. They are a good source of vitamins A and K, as well as folate and manganese.
  • Zucchini is a versatile vegetable that is high in water content and low in calories. It is also a good source of vitamin C, potassium, and fibre.

Our top pick of this collection? One pan cauliflower and salmon. It's bright, colourful and bursting with flavour. With veggies, lentils and salmon, this meal is tasty and nutritious.
