    This is so delicious! I added a few mushrooms because we love them. I didn’t have zucchini but used yellow squash and it was fine. I served it with Basmati rice and Yum Yum sauce. Thanks for the recipe!

      Melissa, I hope if someone has tried it with beef sausage they will respond! I personally think it would work just fine as a substitute. Enjoy!
