For a vegetarian option, substitute the sausage with sautéed mushrooms, onions, and spinach. To add a little heat, incorporate a pinch of red pepper flakes into the sausage mixture. Ensure the zucchini halves are placed close together in the baking dish to maintain moisture during cooking. Use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the zucchini seeds and some of the flesh.
