Sausage And Summer Squash - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/3 - 1/2 cup bottled Italian salad dressing
2 garlic cloves, minced
12 ounces cooked Polish sausage, halved lengthwise, sliced diagonally
3 small summer squash or 3 small zucchini, cut across into 3/4-inch pieces
4 -6 slices Italian bread, lightly toasted
fresh oregano leaves
1/4 cup coarsely shredded parmesan cheese (optional)

Preparation

Preheat broiler.
In a small bowl combine dressing and garlic.
In an extra-large skillet cook sausage and squash in 2 tablespoons of the dressing mixture for 8 to 10 minutes or until sausage is heated through and squash is almost tender, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, toast Italian bread lightly; or if you prefer, you can place the bread slices on a broiler pan, brush with 1 tablespoon of the dressing mixture, and broil 3 to 4 inches from heat for 1 to 2 minutes, until lightly toasted.
Serve sausage and squash with the toasted bread. Drizzle with any remaining dressing; sprinkle with oregano; top with a little parmesan cheese, if desired.
