SAUSAGE AND SUMMER SQUASH
I love squash and zucchini, and when it's in season cooking it with the sausage is a delicious way to prepare and enjoy these vegetables. Served with some lightly toasted italian bread, it makes a great meal.

- Serve the stew over rice or pasta. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.
