Mom made this recipe when I was a kid in the summer to use up those zucchini we always had too many of. I didn't like it then, but love it now! Omit the sausage and make it vegetarian!

We love Italian sausage sandwiches, but because the bread isn't diet-friendly for me, I created this recipe to satisfy my craving. If you like some heat, use hot peppers in place of the sweet peppers. -Tina Howells, Salem, Ohio
