Roasted zucchini with parmesan. I have to make it last when cooking dinner, because I end up eating them all off of the baking sheet otherwise and then I have none for my dinner.

Tzatziki sauce. It’s yogurt! With cucumber! And no sugar added of course. I definitely eat at least a 1/2 cup at a time.
