Sausage & Zucchini Ratatoulie

This recipe evolved out of stuff in the fridge and we love it so much I make it on a regular basis. It is a little spicy and pairs really well with French or cornbread. You can eat it alone or over rice to stretch it for a larger group. In the summer I use fresh tomatoes and add a dash of dried red pepper flakes and it is great. If you have yellow squash, toss them in; green pepper and/or eggplant is also a nice addition. Enjoy!
