Yellow zucchini is a long and slightly fat vegetable, also known as squash. The yellow variant has comparatively softer flesh and tastes sweeter than the green one. It can be lightly cooked and consumed with the peel as it contains beta-carotene and lutein. Chopped/ sliced zucchinis sauteed in olive oil and sesame seeds make a tasty side dish. Chop it into stews and spaghetti dishes or add it as a topping on pizza.
