• 2 medium green peppers, minced
• 1 cup onion, minced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 3 medium zucchini, unpeeled shredded
• 2 cups tomatoes, peeled & chopped
• 1/2 cup jalapeno pepper, deveined, seeds removed & finely chopped

• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• cooked pasta, to serve 8 persons

1. Cook the sausage breaking it up so there are no lumps, cook with the onions & garlic. When the meat is lightly browned drain the pan.
2. Add the green peppers, saute 2 minutes.
3. Add the zucchini, tomatoes, jalapeno, basil, chili, salt, lemon juice & tabasco, simmer 15 minutes. Meanwhile cook your pasta (for an easy method see recipe #30358).
4. Serve over pasta.
5. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
