We have a garden full of yellow squash and some are getting up there in size. I had most of the ingredients for this so had to try it. Yum yum!!! I did have to use turkey instead of the pork as that is what I had. But the flavor was fantastic with just a bit of spice. Mine probably wasn't as pretty as the green zucchini would offer but it still tasted very good. Thank you for submitting this one.
