Note from Gabbi: The reason I made this dish two ways is because my husband can eat tomatoes and I cannot. I thought he would appreciate the sauce versus plain. As you see below, here are the two ways this dish can be made. I combined them both into one dish to save time and dishes.
I removed half the pork mixture first before adding the tomato sauce, added to zucchini, then poured the tomato sauce over remaining pork mixture for my husband. If you scroll back up to the top, you can see my half n half creation. You can create this recipe any way you choose. You can do all without tomato, all with, or half n half like I did.
I also bought pre-seasoned gluten free ground sausage from Whole Foods and omitted the garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
