The prep time for this meal is longer than the cooking process.  If you're a fast chopper, you can cook and prep simultaneously.  Otherwise, I'd suggest prepping the entire meal before you start cooking.

This was well worth all of the chopping and I highly suggest using the fresh spices rather than using dried.  Fresh basil beats dried basil hands down.  The combination of all of the flavors created a delicious meal and I could hardly keep my fork out of the pot after dinner.

As you can see, the Mrs. had an opportunity to slip in another photo prop...



Sausage with Zucchini and Tomatoes

- one package of Jennie-O sweet turkey sausage
- one pound of zucchini, 1/2" slices
- six garlic cloves, diced
- 12oz grape tomatoes, halved
- three tbsp of chopped fresh oregano
- 1/2 cup of chopped fresh basil
- one tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper

Cook sausage according to instructions.  (I grilled them for 10 minutes, 5 minutes on each side.)  Let cool and then slice into 1/2" pieces.

In a stockpot, sauté zucchini garlic and oregano for 5 minutes or until zucchini is tender.  Add sausage, tomatoes, basil and black pepper; continue to cook for one minute.  Serve.
