We LOVE small patty pan squash and this was pretty good. I kind of thought the patty pans might "melt" down a bit more, but maybe I didn't cook it long enough. Definitely didn't need any bulghur. But I did cut the recipe down, by about half, and used smaller tomatoes. Maybe that was the issue. Still, my husband enjoyed it and said we could put it on repeat, so that's a win!
This was such an easy and tasty recipe. I substituted the chorizo with smoked chicken. With a baguette to enjoy the sauce it was a perfect meal
Delicious! The broth is surprisingly rich. I took the advice above and added some bulgur in the last 15 minutes to soak up some of the liquid. Great choice!
