What a tasty dish! I used spicy turkey sausage and added the zucchini pulp in with the sausage and followed the rest of the instructions...definately a keeper. I really enjoyed the pine nuts and red pepper flakes in the mixture. Going into my Favorites of 2012. Thank you for posting. Made for Mays Tag Game ~ El Calabacin ~ Zucchini.
