zucchini + cauliflower

[dreamrawalwz]

I'm sure someone on here knows the answer to this. What nutrients are in zucchini? You hear of the usual:

tomatos = lycopene
oranges = vitamin c
carrots = beta carotene
broccoli = calcium

and so on. What could be paired with zucchini?

I guess I have the same question with cauliflower OH and eggplant lol. To me these seem like bland veggies with little nutrition compared to others.
