]]> Some vegetables just seem like they were designed to test our patience. That’s why today we’re sharing some game-changing tricks for peeling those notoriously tricky veggies. Let’s turn that kitchen frustration into a smooth, peeling breeze!

Butternut Squash

Butternut squash is one of the more daunting vegetables to peel. But here’s a tip. Pierce the squash in several places with a fork. Microwave on high for about 2-3 minutes. Using a sharp vegetable peeler, peel the skin. The microwave step should make the skin come off with minimal effort.

Beets

Beets are known for their tough skin and the mess they can make. Next time, wash the beets and boil them whole in a pot of water until they are fork-tender (30-40 minutes). Once boiled, transfer the beets to a bowl of ice water. When cooled, you can use your hands (wear gloves to avoid staining) to rub off the skin gently.

Tomatoes

The delicate flesh of tomatoes can make peeling them a challenge. So here’s a trick. Score a small “X” on the bottom of each tomato. Gently place the tomatoes in the boiling water for about 30 seconds. Immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water. The skin should now be loose enough to peel!

]]> Most people can’t imagine eating certain veggies without peeling their skin off, but this step can be skipped with some of them. There are many types of vegetables that are much healthier when you eat them with their skin on, and that happens to be the case with these five.

Zucchini

Zucchini is one of the most hydrating veggies on the market, but chances are you’re eating it wrong. Since it mostly consists of water, skin is actually its most nourishing part.

Potatoes

If you tend to peel your potatoes before cooking them, save yourself some time by skipping this step. Potato skin is rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and you can benefit from eating it as long as it’s washed properly.

Cucumbers

Peeling cucumbers comes down to personal preference, but they’re much more nutritious unpeeled—just make sure to get rid of their waxy layer by washing them properly.

Raw Beets

Raw beets are another healthy veggie that you can fix up with a good scrub, and there’s no need to peel their skin off before you put them in your salads and other dishes.

Tomatoes

Eating fresh tomatoes with their skin on is a no-brainer, but some people tend to remove it before cooking them. If you happen to be one of them, skip this step because tomato skin is super-healthy.
