Recipe Club! Zucchini Slice!
/Zucchini Slice by runner Rachel Kay - this dish will knock your socks off!
Rachel has used egg whites instead of the yolks to increase the protein content and knock out the cholesterol.
Our sports nutritionist, Charlene Cassie explains this is a healthy, light, complete meal, perfect for anytime of the day - breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack. You can use gluten free flour if you wish to make it gluten free. We were very satisfied tucking into this dish at Rejoov Recipe Club. (Keep in mind that we also enjoy eating egg yolks in other dishes this is just one version of egg eating).
